APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Gaza, 23 June 2021. Family of Palestinian prisoner Khader Adnan sit inside their home.
STORYLINE
The Jihad leader suspended his hunger strike after 25-day that brought him near death in a protest against the controversial procedure administrative detention that allows detainees to be held indefinitely without charge.
It is worth mentioning that Adnan was abducted and imprisoned by Israel twelve times, spending close to eight years in prison, mostly being held under the arbitrary Administrative Detention orders without charges or trial.
During his repeated imprisonments, the detainee held three hunger strikes, protesting being held under the Administrative Detention orders and being forced into solitary confinement.
In the year 2004, Adnan held a hunger strike for 25 days, followed by 66 days in the year 2012, 54 days in the year 2015, and 58 days in the year 2018.
The detainee is a married father of nine children, the youngest is a newborn (just one month old) and the oldest is 13 years of age.
