The Prisoners' and Ex-Prisoners' Affairs Authority and the Prisoners' Club announced today, Wednesday, the death of detainee Khaled Al-Shawish from Al-Fara'a camp, north of Tubas. He has been detained since May 28, 2007, and has been sentenced to 11 life imprisonments.

Prisoner Al-Shawish was born on January 14, 1971. He studied in UNRWA schools in the camp. He is married and has four children, one of whom is his son Qutaiba, who spent 5 and a half years in the occupation prisons.

Prisoner Al-Shawish was seriously injured by bullets from the Israeli army in 2001, which led to his paralysis. Six years after his injury, the occupation forces arrested him on May 28, 2007, and sentenced him to life imprisonment (11) times.

Since the date of his arrest until today, prisoner Khaled Al-Shawish has been facing chronic and serious health conditions that resulted mainly from being shot by bullets.
