Bisharat was kidnapped by the army twenty days ago and is currently imprisoned in Huwwara detention facility. So far, the Israeli authorities did not file any charges against him. Bisharat is known for his activities in defending human rights and the rights of detainees imprisoned by Israel, he was kidnapped first after the Al Aqsa Intifada inflamed late 2000.

There are at least 10.000 detainees imprisoned by Israel in several prisons and detention camps, among them 555 who were arrested before the beginning of the Al Aqsa Intifada including 369 who were arrested before the Oslo agreement was signed between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organization. At least 400 children were kidnapped by the army since the beginning of the Al Aqsa Intifada. |
