Khader Adnan has terminated his hunger strike after 66 days without any solid foods. The 33 year-old baker from the West bank has spent most of his current imprisonment shackled to his hospital bed to prevent his escape from custody. Israel authorities will end his ‘administrative detention’ April 17, unless new evidence emerged that link their prisoner to criminal activities. Al-Jazeera English reported
that an unnamed source within the Israeli Supreme Court said that a deal reached between Adnan’s lawyers and the Israeli justice ministry, he would end his fast in return for the court’s decision to “erase” his file and release him on April 17, ending The Jenin native’s “administrative detention”.
Adnan’s 66 days of self-starvation beats the last attempt by a Palestinian hunger striker by 21 days.
Home is still two months away and I wonder what the father of three will want for his first meal outside the prison walls of Safed.
