The family of a Palestinian activist who died while in Palestinian Authority custody has filed a 'war crimes and torture' case with the International Criminal Court
The family of a Palestinian activist who died while in Palestinian Authority custody has filed a “war crimes and torture” case with the International Criminal Court, they said Thursday. Nizar Banat, a well-known Palestinian critic of the Palestinian Authority with a large social media following, died in Palestinian police custody in Hebron in June 2021. His death sparked mass protests and angry condemnation of the Palestinian Authority from leading figures in the West Bank and beyond.
Amnesty International said it was a violation of human rights standards to hold the investigation and trial before a military rather than a civilian court. On the one-year anniversary of Banat’s death, Heba Morayef, Amnesty International’s Regional Director for the Middle East and North Africa, called the military justice process a “smokescreen to protect those higher up.
