An-Najah News - Palestinian Authority’s Jerusalem governor, Adnan Ghaith, has been banned from entering the West Bank for a period of six months by Israeli occupation authorities.

He was also summoned for interrogation at al-Maskobiyya interrogation center, in Jerusalem.

Ghaith has been arrested 17 times since he was appointed by the PA as governor of occupied Jerusalem two years ago.

Occupation state of Israel exerts all efforts, including detentions, expulsions, closure of institutions, ban on activities, to prevent any Palestinian activity in the occupied city.

This however would undermine its illegal control over East Jerusalem, occupied since June 1967, and which the Palestinians insist is going to be the capital of their future state.
