OIC Holds Israel Responsible for Death of Palestinian Prisoner Khader Adnan

Jeddah, May 02, 2023, SPA — The General Secretariat of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is holding Israel, the occupying power, fully responsible for the death of Palestinian prisoner Khader Adnan, held in Israeli prisons under the so-called administrative detention, by which suspects are held indefinitely by Israel without charge or trial. The OIC also condemned Israel’s systematic policy of neglecting to give medical care to Palestinians, resorting to arbitrary measures, and the inhumane treatment of Palestinian prisoners who are deprived of the basic human rights guaranteed by international conventions and covenants.
The OIC reaffirmed its support for the Palestinian prisoners and called on the competent international bodies to intervene quickly to protect their rights and to put pressure on Israel, the occupying power, to stop its continued violations of their rights and to release them right away.
