2017-02-20
[IsraelTimes] Verdict raises number of people on death row to 10; others given jail term for alleged spying.

Six Gazooks were condemned to be hanged over charges they informed for Israel, two Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,-run military courts ruled Sunday.

Three men were sentenced to hang by the permanent military court and death sentences for another three were upheld by the supreme military court, according to a statement on the Hamas-run Gazoo Paleostinian interior ministry website.

Sunday’s verdicts raise the number of people on death row to 10.

Seven other people were given prison sentences Sunday ranging from 12 to 17 years long for spying for Israel.

The supreme military court also granted an appeal to a 24-year-old who was sentenced to hang for spying, and instead sentenced him to an unspecified term of hard labor in prison.

Under Paleostinian law, death sentences can be handed out for those collaborating with Israel, murderers and narcos.

But there are stark differences between the Gazoo Strip and the West Bank, the territory controlled by the Paleostinian Authority, which is dominated by President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

No execution has been carried out in the West Bank since 2002, and only two were carried out there between 1994 and 2002.

Since Hamas took power in the Gazoo Strip in 2007, 96 death penalties have been handed out, mostly by military courts and often for spying on behalf of Israel, said Hamdi Shaqura of the Paleostinian Center for Human Rights. Some, but not all, the death sentences have been carried out.

At least 21 death sentences were handed out in Gazoo in 2016 alone.
