Israeli soldiers and policemen kidnapped on Tuesday evening Hatim Abdul-Qader, in charge of the Jerusalem file at the Palestinian Authority, and Ali Abu Sheikha, advisor of the Islamic Movement in Israel.

Palestinian sources reported that soldiers, stationed at the Qalandia roadblock, north of Jerusalem, kidnapped the two officials as they were leaving Ramallah heading back to Jerusalem.

They were moved to a police station in Jerusalem for interrogation.

The Israeli police detained Abdul-Qader several times recently especially after the recent clashes in Jerusalem, and also threatened to imprison Abu Sheikha for being among the residents who remained at the Al Aqsa Mosque while extremist settlers were threatening to attack it.
