RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- Palestinian human rights sources said that 1500 Palestinian sick detainees in Israeli occupation jails would not take their medication or go to clinics on Tuesday in solidarity with a comrade on hunger strike.
The sources said that Atef Wreidat has been on hunger strike for two weeks in protest at moving him to Askalan jail where there is no appropriate medical care for his condition. He suffers from heart problems and breathing difficulty.
They said that the Israeli prison services deliberately place sick prisoners under bad incarceration conditions and delay their treatment, and it is responsible for the life of Wrediat and all other sick internees.
The sources said that sick and disabled prisoners are facing slow death in Israeli jails, adding that the world must intervene to save their lives.
Wreidate, from Dhaheria village in Al-Khalil, is serving an 11-year sentence and has been in custody since 3/5/2002. He is diagnosed with a heart disease and survived a number of strokes. He is in need of an open heart surgery and suffers in addition from diabetes and hypertension. He lost a lot of his weight after his hunger strike but the prison administration still refuses to move him out of Askalan.
