JERUSALEM (Ma’an) — Israeli prison guards physically and verbally abused a long-term hunger striker at Nafha jail on Monday, witnesses said.

Samer al-Issawi, who has been on hunger strike for 85 days, was attacked, pushed to the ground and insulted by guards on his return to Nafha jail from Ofer military court Monday, prisoners who witnessed the attack told their lawyer Ibtisam al-Anati on Wednesday.

A military judge postponed Issawi’s hearing on Monday and the prisoner did not appear in the courtroom, his sister Shireen Issawi said.

Issawi was one of eight prisoners rearrested after their release in the Oct. 2011 prisoner exchange between Israel and Hamas.

The Hurriyat rights group said its lawyer was prevented from seeing Issawi even though she had a permit.

The Palestinian prisoners society said Wednesday that the Nahshon special forces raided section 14 of Nafha jail on Wednesday and ransacked cells.
