IOA slaps three-month visit ban on prisoner Ahmed Saadat

The Israeli occupation authorities (IOA) barred prisoner Ahmad Saadat, the secretary-general of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, from receiving prison visits for three renewable months.

Saadat’s wife, Abla, said in press remarks on Thursday that the Israeli prison authority did not state the reason for its decision.

The detainee, currently held in Gilboa prison, are regularly transferred to different jails as part of the ongoing punitive measures taken against him.

The wife said the Israeli jailers always prevent her and her children from visiting their father, but the difference this time was that the visit ban decision was issued in writing.

Saadat’s wife appealed to human rights groups to intervene with the Israeli prison authority to enable her and her children to see their father.
