NABLUS, (PIC)-- Palestinian local sources reported Tuesday that prisoner Zaher Moussa was transferred to hospital after his exposure to excruciating torture at the hand of Mahmoud Abbas’s security militias.

The sources stated that Moussa, from the village of Zawata in Nablus, was taken to Rafidia hospital following the deterioration of his health caused by his exposure to torture in Juneid prison.

In a related incident, Palestinian citizens released from Abbas’s jails said they were subjected to torture especially at the hands of intelligence officers who do not respect young or old people.

They added that intelligence officers maltreated and tied up Sheikh Talal Jetawi, over 60 years of age, to a chair in a cell for many days, noting that the sheikh is one of Tulkarem's dignitaries, a respectable preacher and an ex-detainee in Israeli jails, but all this good reputation did not save him from their suppression.

In separate incidents, Abbas’s militias kidnapped 10 Palestinian citizens affiliated with Hamas, most of them were ex-detainees in West Bank or Israeli jails, from the cities of Tulkarem, Al-Khalil, Ramallah and Salfit, according to the latest reports received by the Palestinian information center (PIC).

On Tuesday night, two twin brothers called Ghassan and Aref Al-Suki were also kidnapped once again by Abbas’s militias from their home in Jenin city.

Aref, 32, spent six years in Israeli jails on a charge of his affiliation with Hamas while his brother was administratively detained by Israel for four years for the same reason. Both of them were kidnapped by Abbas militias many times before.

Meanwhile, sources close to the family of Mohamed Salamin from Samoa village, who was released few days ago from Abbas’s jails, said he is in a very poor state of health.

The sources affirmed that Salamin cannot walk due to the sever torture he was exposed to during his detention, pointing that he also spent more than five years in Israeli jails.

In a related context, Haaretz newspaper published an interview it conducted with prominent ex-commanders of the dissolved Fatah-armed wing, Al-Aqsa Brigades, in Jenin in which they confessed that Abbas’s militias torture everyone resisting the Israeli occupation.

The newspaper said that the fighters were granted a long time ago amnesty by Israel and everyone of them receive a salary of $400 every month in exchange for giving up resistance.

It added that the despair turned Jenin from the city of martyrs into the city of the dead after the economic peace, which is being implemented by Salam Fayyad all over the West Bank, made the sons of this city lifeless bodies eating, drinking and bemoaning their reality, that some of them turned into collaborators with Israel’s security agencies doing their dirty work on their behalf.

The newspaper highlighted that Jenin has become the headline of the new Palestinian citizen, whom Fayyad is shaping according to the specifications of the economic peace, adding that the highest hope of this citizen is to join the security forces of Dayton based in Jenin.

According to the newspaper, Jamal Zubaidi, one of the prominent Fatah commanders in Jenin, confessed in a press interview with him that everyone who resisted Israel in the past or intends to do so at the present time is arrested and tortured by Abbas’s security militias.

The former fighter also said that the Shabak and the internal security in Israel have not done as Abbas’s militias do to the Palestinian resistance fighters, such as torturing them until they die or end up dying in hospitals or in their homes after they are released.

He opined that Fayyad always brags about the security cooperation with Israel and the improving economic situation in the West Bank and gives numbers in his speeches about the economic growth.

There is no day going by without Fayyad opening a factory, a farm or a new road in an attempt to brainwash the West Bankers and prompt them to think that the resistance in the impoverished Gaza Strip brought on the Palestinians misery, poverty and suffering while the absence of resistance and the security cooperation with Israel in the West Bank brought economic prosperity for its people, Zubaidi told Haaretz.
