Haneyya: The Murder of Omar Nayef in Bulgaria “Shameful Incident”

Gaza, 20 Jumadil Awal 1437/28 February 2016 (MINA) – Deputy head of Hamas’s political bureau Ismail Haneyya has mourned the death of ex-detainee Omar Nayef and condemned his assassination inside the Palestinian embassy in Bulgaria as “one of the greatest shameful incidents.

” In a festival held by Hamas in Gaza on Friday, Haneyya called on the Palestinian Authority (PA) to assume its responsibility for unraveling the mystery of the crime and bringing the perpetrators to justice, The Palestinian Information Center (PIC) reported.

He emphasized that the Mossad, which he described as “the Zionist terrorist arm,” takes advantage of the weakness of the PA and the security collaboration with it as well as the international complicity to commit crimes against the Palestinians.

In another context, the Hamas official hailed journalist Mohamed al-Qeiq for achieving a victory against his jailer and extracting a deal leading to his release, stressing that he was fighting the occupation on behalf of the Palestinian people and prisoners. (T/P011)
