RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- The Ahrar center for prisoners' studies and human rights has asked international organizations and human rights groups to swiftly demand the release of Professor Isam Al-Ashqar, who is held in Israeli occupation authority (IOA) jails.
Fuad Al-Khafsh, the director of the center, said in a statement on Friday that the physics professor is dying in the IOA jails as a result of chronic high blood pressure and hardening of the kidney veins.
Khafsh charged the IOA with attempting to eliminate Palestinian scientists who contribute to building their country.
He lashed out at the IOA for bringing the judge to the hospital bed of Prof. Ashqar to renew his administrative detention, without trial or charge.
The director quoted the judge as telling Ashqar that he knew his scientific status and certificates and that he is suffering from many diseases but "for the sake of preserving the security of Israel I have to keep you in jail".
