RAMALLAH, January 25, 2012 (WAFA) - The Palestinian Prisoner's Club (PPC) Wednesday condemned Israeli police mistreatment of jailed Fatah lawmaker, Marwan Barghouti, during an appearance in court.

A court hearing was held in order for Barghouti to testify in a case filed against him and the PLO by American-Jews.

The Israeli police, after the hearing, pushed Barghouti to the ground and pulled him by the handcuffs in front of journalists.

Barghouti ignored the court and refused to speak to the judge, considering it an occupying court.
