OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- In stark contrast to the events held by the PA in Ramallah to mark the Palestinian prisoner day, the Fatah-affiliated security apparatuses escalated their kidnapping campaigns and harassment against Hamas cadres and other resistance factions in Tulkarem especially those who were released recently from Israeli jails.
The PA security apparatuses also used recently new means to torture their Palestinian prisoners which led many of them to be transferred to hospital for treatment.
These security apparatuses which are supposedly under the command of ex-PA chief Mahmoud Abbas kidnapped in Tulkarem city alone more than 50 Palestinian citizens who had been prisoners in Israeli jail.
One of the most dangerous kinds of torture used by PA security officers is the tying of prisoners' hands to the ceiling for hours while beating them severely in their backs which expose prisoners to the risk of paralysis or heart attacks and if one of those tortured prisoners collapses or faints, he is beaten further and forced to stand straight again.
Any jailer showing sympathy with Palestinian prisoners is tortured too as what happened with one of the PA intelligence jailers called Ali Al-Sharif from Nour Shams refugee camp, who was locked up in a solitary cell, beaten, insulted and charged with treason by his colleagues because he treated some prisoners nicely.
In a related new development, the PA security apparatuses reportedly kidnapped last week 40 Palestinian citizens affiliated with Hamas and three others affiliated with Islamic Jihad. The kidnappings usually take place either after summoning citizens or during raids.
In a statement leaked from Israeli jails, Hamas prisoners on Saturday deplored the PA security apparatuses for escalating their violations and attacks against Hamas cadres and supporters in the West Bank.
The Hamas prisoners said that Abbas's authority should understand that it became blatantly and clearly hostile to its people and biased in favor of the Palestinians' enemy.
They added that the PA security turned into one of Israel's task force operating according to the orders of US officer Keith Dayton.
