The Commission of Prisoners' Affairs and Ex-Prisoners said on Tuesday that the "Skypus" disease is spreading in Megiddo Prison, coinciding with the prison administration's delay in providing the necessary medication to infected prisoners.
During his visit to a number of prisoners in Megiddo, the Commission’s lawyer stated that prisoner Ahmed Mahmoud Abdel Razzaq (32 years old) from Tulkarm is in Megiddo Prison, Section 3, Room 1. He was arrested on 4/25/2024, and is still detained. He has a court date on July 13.
The prisoner is suffering from syphilis, and boils have begun to appear on his body. He has not yet been given any antibiotics or medication. He lost approximately 15 kilograms of weight following his arrest and was beaten during his detention.
Regarding the general situation in the prison, prisoners visited by the Commission's lawyers reported that hot water was not provided daily. As for shampoo, three bottles were distributed per week, in addition to one roll of tissues per prisoner per week.
The prisoners agreed that, depending on the mood of the jailer on duty, prisoners are assaulted, beaten, and humiliated, and sometimes they are suppressed for the most trivial reasons.
