Oman- The Israeli occupation forces re-arrested the Jordanian prisoner, engineer Abdullah Al-Zitawi, yesterday evening, after they raided his home in the city of Nablus in the West Bank, where he lives.
Al-Zitawi was released last year, 2022, after serving a 7-year prison sentence in Israeli prisons on charges of resisting the occupation.
Fadi Farah, the liberated prisoner and rapporteur of the National Committee for Jordanian Prisoners and Missing Persons, held the Israeli authorities fully responsible for the safety of the prisoner Al-Zitawi, who is a member of the Jordanian Engineers Association.
He pointed out the worsening suffering of Jordanian prisoners in the occupation prisons, stressing in his interview with Manhattan Tribune Net that they have been subjected to abuse, beatings, and systematic assault since the seventh of last October.
Al-Zitawi’s family sent an appeal via Al-Jazeera Net to the Jordanian government, demanding to know the fate of their son and to work to release him immediately, as he was arrested without any charge.
The family of the prisoner Al-Zitawi expressed their hope during the previous period that their son would be allowed to return to his homeland, Jordan, after the end of his sentence in the occupation prisons, without him being re-arrested again.
Abdullah Al-Zitawi faces a prison sentence in absentia in Jordan issued by the State Security Court for 15 years, as a result of his involvement in what is known as the “Supporting the Resistance” case in 2014, in which 20 Jordanians were arrested, most of whom work in the Jordanian Engineers Association.
