He has suffered cancer in the rectal area for five months and also complains of hepatitis. He takes seven pills a day and undergoes chemotherapy sessions, but is waiting to undergo surgery, in order to eradicate the tumor as soon as possible.
Yasser is a father of two children and is sentenced to life imprisonment plus ten years, and was first detained in 2001.
