The Independent calls for the release of detainees held by the security services
The Independent Commission for Human Rights, the Board of Grievances, said today, Sunday, that it is following up on the security services' summoning and arresting dozens of citizens affiliated with the Hamas movement.
In a statement, the commission indicated that most of them were released while more than 30 citizens are still detained by the security services. It is contrary to reality and that most of them are covered by unfounded criminal charges, but rather directed as a pretext for continuing detention. As stated in its statement.
And she considered that the continued summons and arrests on the basis of political affiliation, the delay in implementing court decisions and the mistreatment of detainees constitutes a violation of citizen rights and a crime punishable by law, and requires the relevant authorities, led by the Public Prosecution, to intervene immediately to stop these violations and immediately release detainees from the security services. .
The Independent Commission for Human Rights called for the immediate release of detainees against whom release decisions have been issued by the courts, and for the cessation of summons and arrests on the background of political orientations.
The authority called on the Public Prosecution to issue directives to the relevant authorities to immediately release and take the necessary measures to punish the violators.
- And she demanded to be allowed to play her role in visiting the detainees without restrictions or delay to see their conditions.
- And she stressed the need for judicial authorities not to extend detention except in necessary cases, and for detention to be a last resort, and to seriously investigate allegations of torture and ill-treatment.
