Israeli occupation authorities issued at least 63 administrative detention orders in the latter part of September, reported Palestinian lawyer Mahmoud al-Halabi of the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society.
Among those ordered to administrative detention were Sabah Faraoun, a Palestinian seamstress from Jerusalem whose administrative detention has been extended five times since she was seized by occupation forces on 19 June 2016, and Salah Hamouri, the French-Palestinian lawyer and human rights defender who is the subject of a global campaign for his release.
Administrative detention orders, which imprison Palestinians without charge or trial on the basis of secret evidence, are issued for one- to six-month periods and are indefinitely renewable. Palestinians have spent years at a time jailed without charge or trial under administrative detention. There are currently approximately 450 Palestinians held under administrative detention out of a total of 6,200 Palestinian political prisoners.
