Israel re-arrests a former hunger striker

NABLUS, June 8, 2017 (WAFA) – Israeli army re-arrested early Thursday Muhammad Illan, from his Einabous home, south of Nablus.

Illan, a lawyer, went on a 65-day hunger strike last year protesting his continuous administrative detention without charge or trial.

He ended his hunger strike only after reaching a deal with the Israel Prisons Service not to renew his detention after completing the prison term. He was released in November. 

No reason was given for the re-arrest.
