An-Najah News - The Palestinian prisoner Sami Janazreh, 47 years old, a father of four children, from Al-Fawwar camp continues his open hunger strike for the 21st in a row in refusal of his administrative detention in Israeli jails.
The Palestinian prisoner club said in a statement today that Janazreh, has fought and continued his strike third time to reject his administrative detention since 2016, which comes as a clear response to the Israeli occupation’s approach in stealing the lives of hundreds of Palestinians through the administrative detention policy.
He added that the prisoner Janazreh, and he is one of dozens of prisoners who have gone on hunger strikes against administrative detention since late 2011, and some of them who have done more than one strike during their periods of detention, in an effective attempt to limit the continuous administrative detention operations.
The Occupation Prisons Administration implements a series of punitive and retaliatory measures against the striking prisoner from the moment of his announcement of the strike. It begins from the process of solitary confinement in cells that are not suitable for human life, the frequent transportation operations, with the aim of overwhelming the prisoner and abusing him, especially as it is carried out through what is called a "Busta" vehicle Which the prisoners describe it as an additional journey of torture, apart from the entire formative procedures implemented by the jailers, including bringing food in front of the cells of the striking prisoner, and exercising a policy of psychological intimidation against him. Moreover, the process of transferring them to civilian hospitals of the occupation constitutes an additional battle carried out against them.
It is noteworthy that the Occupation Prisons Administration re-transferred Janazreh to a prisoner again to the cells of the "Negev" prison, after he was recently transferred to the isolation of the "Ayla" prison.
