Israeli police arrest senior Palestinian official

Raja Eghbariya

Israeli police on Tuesday arrested a senior Palestinian official in the 1948 occupied Palestinian territories after searching his house and confiscating some of his belongings.

According to his family, Raja Eghbariya, member of the political bureau of Abnaa el-Balad Movement, was arrested from his house in Umm al-Fahm on Tuesday morning.

The family said in a press statement that Israeli police seized all computers in the house as well as Eghbariya’s cell phone.

They added that an Israeli court decided to extend Eghbariya’s detention until Wednesday with no charges leveled against him.

Eghbariya has been arrested several times by the Israeli police over charges of “incitement” and “encouraging riots” in demonstrations in the 1948 occupied Palestine.
