GAZA, (PIC)-- Palestinian legal expert Abdul Nasser Farwana has accused the Israeli occupation authority of turning thousands of Palestinian prisoners into experiment fields for their new drugs in clear and flagrant violation of human rights and international conventions on prisoners.
According to Farwana, who is the director of the statistics department at the PA ministry of prisoners and ex-prisoners, majority of the captives are suffering different kinds of sicknesses due to the harsh incarceration conditions and the IOA deliberate medical neglect.
Tens of Palestinian detainees died in Israeli prisons at least 46 of them due to medical neglect over the past four decades, Farwana affirmed based on the records of his department.
Tens years ago, Israeli parliament speaker Dalia Itzik, who was then the chairwoman of the parliamentary science committee in the Knesset (parliament), had unveiled that at least 1,000 medical experiments were carried out on Palestinian prisoners annually Farwana added.
He also accused the Israeli health ministry of issuing permits for carrying out more experiments on the Palestinian captives although they were internationally-forbidden.
"Such revelations reflect the high-degree of Israeli racism that violates human rights and human dignity" asserted Farwana.
Tens of thousands of Palestinian people were sent into Israeli jails over the past few decades, at least 11,000 of them are still languishing in those jails under inhuman conditions.
International laws and conventions, including the Geneva Fourth convention among other covenants, urge countries to deal with prisoners in a humanistic manner, and not to expose them to danger. Israel defied those laws and never abided by them as far as the Palestinian captives are concerned.
The Nazis were the first to use such kind of experiments, especially on POWs, resulting in the death of many of them.
The Palestinian official also warned that even Palestinian ex-prisoners were still suffering of a number of diseases as a result of those prohibited experiments carried out on them, calling for an annual check up of those ex-prisoners so as to ensure they were not suffering of chronic diseases.
