The lawyer of the Women’s Organization for Political Prisoners (WOFPP), Taghreed Jahshan, is appealing to everybody from the international community, the European Union, Parliament members, governments, courts, judges, journalists, human rights organizations, peace activists, to rescue the life of a Palestinian girl who was abused SEXUALLY SEVERAL TIMES by an IDF jailer, a warden from the inhuman military jail of Hasharon. lawyer Jahshan stated that the victim is a minor and that the she lives under severe punishment in an isolation cell. Jahshan expressed her great concern after the victim was transferred to an unhealthy isolation cell after she complained formally against the sexual abuse by the warden. She said that the jailer spread the victims cell with poisonous chemicals and locked the door of the cell after five minutes.
The health of the minor is deteriorated after breathing the chemicals. She is vomiting and suffering of constant headache. The inhuman situation and ill treatment which the minor suffers is a clear violation of the duties contracted by Israel by signing the Geneva Conventions of 1949 and other treaties of international humanitarian law. The incarceration of this minor is equally a violation of obligations acquired by Israel to protect civilians, as she is incarcerated and mistreated by Israel solely for being a Palestinian.

19 Septmber 2009
Since the last month WOFPP has accompanied, with deep concern, the minor political prisoner who complained of sexual harassment by one of the guards in Hasharon Prison where she was held.
WOFPP’s lawyer, Taghreed Jahshan, visited the prisoner many times during the recent period and has sent a very urgent letter, on 6 September 2009, to the Prisons Service Commissioner, with copies to the Central Area’s Commander and other persons of the Service Prison staff and to the Chairman of the Bar Association’s Prisons Committee.
Since there was no reply, another urgent letter was sent on 14 September, and again it had not been answered in writing.
The letter raised serious claims of the prisoner – verified by affidavit – according to which, following the complaint she has submitted, the Prisons Service harassed the prisoner, by transferring her to another prison to the isolation/separation wing in which criminal prisoners are being held, without any legal basis, and holding her in inhuman conditions: a stuffy, very damp cell, without any sunlight, without TV, ventilator, books (except one book she brought with her) and without handicraft materials. The prison authorities also had taken from the prisoner her head coverings. In addition, there were many ants in the cell that disturbed her sleep at night. In fact, the prisoner sat about 24 hours a day facing the walls without anything to occupy herself with.
All these details were reported in a letter to the Prisons Service Commissioner; however he did not see fit to reply in writing concerning these claims. Even worse, probably following the letter, insecticide was sprayed in the wing. The prisoner was taken out of her cell for a few minutes and, immediately after the spraying, she was returned. As a result, she was overcome by feelings of suffocation and dizziness for some hours, and she continued to feel chest pain.
[Additional Comment: this means that the child is being poisoned deliberately with dangerous chemicals by the Prisons Service Commissioner. This is attempted of murder against the girl]
Only on 15/9/09, after a month during which the prisoner was held in the conditions described above, she was transferred to a cell with reasonable conditions, but still in the same isolation/separation wing.
These last days, staff members in charge at the prison where the prisoner is detained, made telephone contact with attorney Jahshan and told her that the most senior ranks handle the matter of the prisoner, aiming to find a solution for her by transferring her from the wing which she is held in.
Our position is clear in this matter: a political prisoner should be in a political prisoners’ wing – there is no other solution.
The same staff members promised attorney Jahshan to update her on Monday 21 September 2009. If the decision that will be taken will not meet the required objective, a plea in the prisoner’s name will immediately be submitted to the court.
Regarding the prisoner’s complaint against sexual harassment (attorney Jahshan represents her also in this matter): The prisoner says that she will continue to fight until the guard will get the punishment he deserves.
It should be noted that WOFPP is in close and continuous contact with the prisoner’s family which is updated on every detail.
The minor prisoner has been held in isolation/separation for over a month and probably will have to spend the holiday of Eid-elFiter alone.
Isolation/separation is a kind of torture

Bonjour
Comment peut-on comprendre ce qui s’est passé dans cette prison Israelienne ( abus sexuel sur une mineure et intoxication de prisonniers dans leur cellule ), sinon par l’inhumanité d’individus déresponsabilisés et rendus fous de haine par une guerre qui n’en finit pas ?
Pendant combien de temps encore, et au-delà des nombreux contentieux entre 2 peuples frères, ce conflit servira-t-il d’exemple à la communauté internationale pour justifier la haine et la violence ailleurs ?
Rétablir une paix véritable à Jérusalem, en palestine et en Israel en créant un seul état à la fois juif et palestinien, serait un formidable exemple de paix et de fraternité pour la planète entière qui a les yeux braqués sur cette partie de monde tellement symbolique pour tous.
Shalom Alechem !

Ms.Salam,
Eid mubarak to all.
This is the worst kind of filthy vile abuse. Only inhuman sub-beasts could do such things.
Free this prisoner and free Palestine!

I wish Ahmadinejad was the villain he is made out to be and one day we could all wake up [Edited] to see Palestine for Palestinian.
Obviously these people could care less about what the international community thinks of what they do.
Every day I have to wake up and read about more innocent people who have died because of the sick and evil things that so-called “holy” people of Islam do! I frankly wish the world powers would gather together and abolish organized religion all together! Catholicism and Islam are evil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
About 93% of Palestinians are Islamic, the other 6 percent being “Christian”. Trouble makers get trouble, that’s the way I see it! Free this minor and ABOLISH religion!
Oh Ian Shore, get a clue and stop making up stories to suit your own bigotted delusions. Just because occassionally in response to millions of detahs of their people in Israeli and US aggressions, some Islamic militants have beheaded people, does not in any way justofy or lesten the crime which is being reported here.
I would have to ask myself what sort of a vile, disgusting excuse for a man would raise such an utterly irrelevant matter in such an obvious attempt to deflect from a heinous crime which is hardly unique in that land of war criminals, organ thieves and lying thieving scum…yes I would have to ask myself, if not for the fact I am well accustomed to Zionist pervsersions and filth and have come to the honest heart felt conclusion that you are not men, but demons in the bodies of men.
You and all Zionists are carving out a future for yourselves which nobody would ever choose. Karma is a bitch you disgusting excuse for a man and I can assure you she is well and truly pissed with Zionism at this point. Just cut the lies you rotten scum. you are lying, thieving, murdering filth and you cannopt acept any sort of criticism which is why you have become such a travesty of all things human. you have become unhinged from the moorings of humanity, you cannot comprehend that you are no longer covered with darkness but that the light of truth is shining on your every dirty deed. Truth marches relentless onwards and NOT even the Zionists can keep it imprisoned forever.
I could not wish anything worse upon you or your people, Zionist, than that which is swiftly approaching. I do however sing you your karma with joy.
May God Bless Iran and Ahmadinejad. [redacted] Can you imagine if a jewish child were treated like this! The money grubbing zionist pharisees would be demanding reparations in the billions!
I don`t find words to pen down but they always find an excuse to justify brutality. I wonder when it will all end. JUST FREE THE HUMAN BEING.
The star will eventually fade out for injustice, inhumanity, aggression and torture. Its just the Law of the LORD.
K salam just keep it going you are doing a great job
