OIC Holds Israel Responsible for the Death of a Palestinian Prisoner in the Occupation Prisons

Date: 20/12/2022

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) holds Israel, the occupying power, fully responsible for the death of Palestinian prisoner Nasser Abu Hamid in the occupation prisons, as a result of the policy of deliberate medical negligence and deprivation of basic rights, practiced by the Israeli prison administration against prisoners.
The OIC calls for establishing an international commission of inquiry to investigate this new crime, which is only the latest in the series of Israeli crimes perpetrated against the Palestinian people, including prisoners.
The OIC reaffirms its stand in support of the Palestinian prisoners. At the same time, it demands that the competent international bodies act promptly in order to protect the prisoners’ rights, and pressure Israel to cease its persistent violations against them and to release them immediately.
