- Former Palestinian
detainee Abdul-Nasser Farwana (photo), specializing in Palestinian
detainees’ affairs, stated that since
decades the Israeli occupation executed Palestinian detainees after they surrendered and refused to hand their bodies to their
families. Hundreds of bodies were transferred to the families
days, months or even years after the fact, and when the bodies were sent back, they were missing vital internal
organs. Israeli occupation forces kidnapped 3,060 Palestinians including
children, women and fishermen in the first half of 2009 at a rate of 17 detainees per day.
