JERUSALEM, Monday, March 13, 2023 (WAFA) – An Israeli court today extended the isolation of Palestinian prisoner in Israeli jails Ahmad Manasra, who was arrested at age 13 after being involved in a stabbing attack against Israelis in Jerusalem, despite his critical mental condition, according to attorney Khaled Zabarqa.
He said the court decided to keep Manasra, 21, in isolation for a period of six more months.
Manasra was 13 years old when he was first arrested following a stabbing attack in Jerusalem. He was ill-treated during the early years of his detention to the point he was later diagnosed with schizophrenia.
