Um AL-Fahm, MINA – An Israeli court extended on Monday the detention of Sheikh Raed Salah, the head of the Islamic Movement in 1948 occupied Palestine, until next Thursday in order to submit an indictment against him, PIC reported.

Sheikh Salah is accused of inciting “violence and hatred” and being a member in an “outlawed organization”.

Lawyer Khaled Zabarqa told Quds Press that the accusations of incitement directed against Sheikh Salah are based on statements he made in the framework of freedom of speech which is guaranteed by law.

Zabarqa accused the Israeli government of incitement against Salah to put him in jail and of then trying to look for charges to level against him.

He affirmed that Sheikh Salah maintains a high spirit despite the harassment and pressure he is subjected to, and he is confident he did not break any laws.

On 14th August, Israeli police arrested Sheikh Salah after storming his house in Umm al-Fahm in 1948 occupied Palestine on charges of “inciting violence and terrorism”, and since then his detention was extended several times.

Salah previously served a nine-month sentence in Israeli jails in 2016 after being charged with “inciting violence” in one of his sermons.(T/R04/RS5)
