RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) has held Muntaha Al-Tawil the wife of detained mayor of El-Bireh Sheikh Jamal Al-Tawil under administrative detention.

The office of lawyer Jawad Bulos in occupied Jerusalem said that the Israeli prosecution refused to release Muntaha after the court on Sunday adjourned her case till next Thursday, adding that she was held in administrative custody.

The IOA arrested Muntafa from her home last Monday and was held in Talmund jail.

Muntaha is a well known syndicate activist and is concerned with the issue of Palestinian prisoners in IOA jails.

Sheikh Tawil, for his part, asked the human rights groups to swiftly intervene to ensure the release of his wife.
