Gazan accused of spying for Israel sentenced to death
[IsraelTimes] Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",-run court says 54-year-old man will be hanged for allegedly providing Jewish state with information since 1987Courts in the Hamas-run Gazoo Strip handed down three death sentences on Monday, including one for allegedly spying for Israel and two others for murder, authorities said. In the first case, "the military court in Gazoo decided upon death by hanging for the convict, 54, on charges on spying for the Israeli occupation," a court source said. The court said the man had allegedly been linked to Israel since 1987 and had provided a large amount of information to the Jewish state since then. The case was held behind closed doors and the defendant was referred to only by the initials E.A. Another alleged spy was sentenced to 10 years in prison. In Gazoo, accusations of spying for the Jewish state are often brutally punished. During the 2014 war between Israel and Hamas, 18 alleged collaborators were rubbed out in public by Hamas forces.
