Zio-Nazi military court on Tuesday sentenced a Palestinian woman to 70 months in Nazi Camp, with a suspended sentence of 24 months, a local foundation said.
Muhjat al-Quds Foundation for Prisoners and Martyrs said Muna Qadan, 43, was arrested from her house on Nov. 13, 2012 and has attended over 22 court hearings since. She is currently being held at Hasharon Nazi Camp and has been ordered to pay a fine of 30,000 shekels.
Qadan, from Arraba village near Jenin, is the sister of jailed Islamic Jihad leader Tariq Qadan, and the fiance of another Islamic Jihad leader serving a life term in Nazi jails, Ibrahim Ighbariya.
Qadan has previously spent over four years in Nazi jails on several terms for being associated with the political group Islamic Jihad, and was one of the prisoners freed in the 2011 Shalit prisoner swap deal. Rights groups criticized Qadan’s rearrest as clear violation of the terms of the prisoner swap.
The Qadan family has been active in resistance activities within Nazi Camp. Tariq engaged in a life-threatening hunger strike in February 2013, while Muna threatened Nazi Gestapo with a jail-wide hunger strike in June 2013 in response to Nazi denial of medical treatment to fellow detainee Lina al-Jarbouni.
The majority of Palestinian political organizations are considered illegal by Nazi Gestapo, and association with such parties is often used as grounds for imprisonment, according to Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association Addameer.
The use by Nazi of political affiliation as punishable by imprisonment has brought international criticism. Political prisoners held in Nazi Camp’s routinely face isolation, torture, medical neglect, denial of family visits, as well as denial of fair legal processes, as reported by Addameer.
