Researcher says he believes Swedish paper's organ report
Ma'an -- While many have opted to stay out of the ongoing breakdown in Israel-Sweden relations over an article making unusual allegations against Israel's military, one Palestinian official said he believed its reports of "organ harvesting" could be true. In a statement on Friday, prisoners' affairs researcher Abed An-Nasser Farwana insisted that certain elements in the provocative but back-page article in Sweden's daily Aftonbladet tabloid confirmed his personal suspicions. "All the facts and testimonies, particularly with regard to [Israeli] occupation forces isolating [prisoners], killing hundreds after seizing them, shooting prisoners and holding bodies in the 'numbers cemetery,' validate what the newspaper has published," said the researcher, who has made unorthodox claims in the past. Ma'an could not confirm his latest allegations, nor have any prominent Palestinian or Israeli officials made similar remarks on either the Swedish author's report or the more recent claims from Farwana.
