STORYLINE

The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) has reported, Wednesday, that the hunger-striking detainee Emad Sawarka, from Jericho, has lost more than 18 kilograms of his weight, and is unable to walk.

The PPS stated that one of its lawyers managed to visit with Sawarka, Tuesday, and said that the detainee was brought to him in a wheelchair, as he is unable to walk or even stand.

It added that Sawarka is facing several complications due to his strike, which continues to the 42nd day, but is determined to continue the strike, protesting his arbitrary Administrative Detention, without charges or trial.
