Israeli police detain recently freed prisoner over 'unpaid taxes'
JERUSALEM (Ma'an)
Israeli police detained a recently released Palestinian prisoner who had been held for over 20 years over allegedly "unpaid taxes" on Sunday.
Mahmoud Daajnah, a 66-year-old veteran prisoner who was released three weeks ago as part of an agreement between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, was handed a summons at a checkpoint in Jerusalem on Saturday and taken into custody on Sunday, according to a prisoner advocacy group.
A spokesperson for the families of Jerusalem prisoners in Israeli custody Amjad Abu Asab told Ma'an that Daajnah was stopped by Israeli forces on Saturday at a military checkpoint near Shuafat refugee camp north of Jerusalem.
He was released after an hour and a half of detention, but was handed a summons demanding that he appear at a police station in Beit Hanina to settle unpaid taxes.
