South African Muslim Lawyers Demand Arrest of Israel's Peres
(Anadolu-Turkey) The South African Muslim Lawyers Association has asked to have former Israeli President Shimon Peres, 92, arrested when he arrives in the country this weekend. Attorney Yousha Tayob cited Israel's shelling of the Lebanese village of Qana in 1996 when Peres was Israel's prime minister. In June 2015, Egyptian President al-Sisi canceled a trip to South Africa after the same group requested his arrest.
