[Ynet] Hamdan Timraz, a Paleostinian official with UNDSS, is released by Israel after being tossed in the slammer

by the Shin Bet for security-related offenses; UN kept abreast of Timraz's detention by Israeli authorities.


Timraz was arrested a month ago by the Shin Bet after crossing into Israel for work. Timraz's son Khaled said his father was released after a court decided not to charge him.

Timraz, 61, from the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gazoo Strip, travelled to Israel from the Gazoo Strip many times due to his work.

Timraz's family had been lobbying international organizations and human rights

groups to pressure Israel for his release.

On Wednesday evening, the Israeli Foreign Ministry issued a statement concerning Timraz, saying, "Timraz was detained for questioning by the Shin Bet on suspicion of being involved in committing security offenses. During his questioning, information was received indicating his involvement in prohibited activity.

"Following his questioning, he was released and the findings of the investigation are being reviewed by the relevant officials in order to take action against those involved in the activities. It should be noted that UN authorities received reports from Israel concerning Timraz's arrest and its significance."

#6  "I'm starving!" He stroked his mustachio
And snatched from the bar a pistachio.
"Stop staring, there, Harry!"
An olive. A cherry.
"And bring me a plate of carpaccio."

"And Pickering? Stop snickering."
