 Palestinian media sources in the West Bank reported on Wednesday that one member of Fateh movement died in vague circumstances at the Jericho Central Prison controlled by Fateh security forces and police in the West Bank city of Jericho. The sources stated that Shady Shaheen, in his thirties, suffered from a sharp deterioration in his health conditions two days ago, but members of his family accused the security forces of torturing and executing him in prison. The family demanded an autopsy to reveal the causes of his head. Shaheen was arrested in 2002 after he was accused of opening fire at Nabil Amro, the then Palestinian Minister of Information. Amro is now the Palestinian Ambassador in Cairo and is one of the close figures to the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas. Amro was wounded in his legs during the period when the late Palestinian president, Yasser Arafat, was surrounded by the Israeli army in his Ramallah headquarters. During that period, Amro accused a number of senior Palestinian officials of conspiring against Arafat. |
