Shin Wager and the IDF have granted immunity to 50 Gaza detainees, including Shifa Clinic director Muhammad Abu Salmiya, who has been in administrative detention in Israel since November 23.
Even though Hamas used the Shifa Clinic as a terror center and to hide hostages, no concrete evidence was ever presented publicly that Abu Salmiya was involved.
Abu Salmiya is surprised
Again in November, a senior IDF source directed Jerusalem Publications When Abu Salmiya was asked what he knew about the systematic use of his clinic by Hamas, he gave doubtful answers, but doubtful answers without evidence typically lead to administrative detention of any person for more than seven months. Cannot be used to keep in.
Abu Salmiya had three hearings in the courts, the last of which took place in December 2023.
In December 2023, sources told the Post that he had a hearing via videoconference in an unnamed Israeli civilian magistrate’s court, at which his detention was extended. A similar process was repeated again this past spring at some unknown level.
Negative updates regarding their situation were coming from November–December 2023, with prison and security resources only stating that matters were taking a protracted pace due to the ongoing conflict and the large number of detainees.
Furthermore, there was no particular reason why Abu Samia could not be prosecuted within several months.
Israel is no longer releasing the detainees, but combining joint announcements of arrests in other cases, the Post finds that possibly more than 4,000 Gazans were detained and the IDF detained more than 4,100 West Attic Palestinians. Has announced to take.
In the past, Abu Salmiya was being criminally investigated by Shin Wager under the flow of war disaster laws in the case of Hamas and other terrorists linked to the war.
As part of those laws, Abu Salmiya was prevented from seeing a lawyer for at least several weeks.
Even though the resources did not establish a civilian court, historically, Beersheba courts have handled many of Gazan’s terrorist cases.
For weeks in November, the publication was only informally indicated through a few sources that he was in Shin Weger’s custody, with the IDF prison department, Shin Weger, the Justice Ministry, and the police all declining to comment on the file. Was. ,
Under the usual long-standing rules in Israeli civilian courts, to justify detaining a suspect, the state must file an indictment, usually within a few days or, in special cases, within a few weeks.
Upon his return to Gaza, Abu Salmiya said, “The situation in the prison is sad and very difficult, and a strong stance must be taken on behalf of the resistance and the Arab people for the release of the prisoners.”
Prior to the IDF invasion of the Shifa Clinic in November, Hamas militants killed hostage Noah Marciano inside the clinic’s wing.
Document published by Israel on Speed shows Hamas militants taking two hostages, a Nepalese national and a Thai national, to Shifa Clinic, one of whom was injured and the other thrown on a hospital bed at the same speed , the speed at which he was walking.
The IDF recaptured the Shifa clinic in March, but the nearby Abu Salmiya remained in detention for several months and undoubtedly could not be charged with any charges consistent with Hamas’s more blatant terrorist activities during that period.
Against this, the IDF allowed most of the Hamas fighters to leave Shifa in November, when hundreds of civilians fled the branch.
Opposition politicians and executive ministers on Monday traded accusations over who was responsible for the release of Abu Salmiya and dozens of other Gazan detainees.
The federal government, Shin Wager, and the IDF have already released several hundred Gazan detainees from time to time over several months, usually without announcement and during the night.
This system embarrasses executive right-wing ministers and so they have blamed it on Shin Stake, even though the federal government and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have authority over Shin Stake.
Shin Wager has come under political attack since October 7 by Netanyahu and his allies, who have attempted to blame any security failures on it and the IDF in order to avoid blame.
Netanyahu made a comment that he did not know who was being granted immunity and also attributed the release of detainees to the Supreme Court, which could be ensured through Knesset rules.
Defense Minister Yoav Galant also said he did not know which detainees would receive immunity, but that it may be within his jurisdiction to determine.
The company’s administrative detention practices are a subject of debate internationally, or even Israeli law imposes limits on how long a person can be detained without being brought to trial and evidentiary requirements. are those that must be accomplished.
The federal government can lower those standards if it wishes, but in the meantime the Shin Bet is fixed through the current regulation passed by the Knesset.
