Israel releases Palestinian inmate Karim Younis after 40 years in jail
RAMALLAH, Palestine (AA) – Israeli authorities on Thursday released a Palestinian prisoner after he had spent 40 years in jail, according to the Palestinian Prisoners Society.
Karim Younis from the town of Ara in northern Israel was arrested on Jan. 6, 1983, and was sentenced to imprisonment for life, which was later set for 40 years.
He was convicted for being a member of the banned Fatah movement, and “possession of weapons” and “killing an Israeli soldier.”
Younis is a member of the Central Committee of Fatah led by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.
During his detention, he authored two books – one in 1990 titled “The Political Reality in Israel” and the other in 1993 titled “The Ideological Struggle and Settlement”.
