PA Court Sentences Palestinian to Death for Collaborating with Israel
[Jerusalem Post] Khaled Abu Toameh - A Palestinian Authority "military court" in Hebron on Sunday sentenced another Palestinian to death by firing squad on suspicion of "collaboration" with Israel. The 28-year-old man, who used to serve in the PA's elite Presidential Guard, is the eighth Palestinian to receive the death sentence in the past few months. Presiding Judge Ahmed Abu Dayyah said in his verdict that the accused had been found guilty of collaboration with the "enemy." Defense lawyer Yusef al-Ribie told the court that his client had been tortured during interrogation.
