A Palestinian woman, who had been on hunger strike for 40 days was released from an Israeli prison on Sunday. Hana Shalabi, 30, was protesting the Israeli practice of “administrative detention” which “allows imprisonment based on secret informants or information.”
Ms. Shanabi had previously been arrested and detained by Israeli authorities, but was released in October 20011.
“Administrative detention orders can be issued for a maximum of six months, but can be renewed indefinitely.”
