Press Release
Do the Security Services and the Military Intelligence Service Provide Cover for the Criminals Among Their Members?!
(Translated)

In a dangerous precedent, and a full-fledged reprehensible crime, yesterday, Saturday 15/10/2022, a group of shabiha (militia) in Ramallah who are linked to the security services; between an employee, his sons and a close associate, known by name and capacity, they attacked a number of Hizb ut Tahrir workers with knives and batons in front of the Saad bin Muadh Mosque in Ramallah, also in an attempt to run over a young man, injuring another with several injuries on his body and head with knives, as well as vandalizing another car, and their explicit threat to kill and shoot, all of which is mixed with the crime of cursing the divine and obscene speech that is only worthy of thugs and immorality.

The fact that the Military Intelligence Service provided cover for one of its members, in which a complaint was filed with Military Intelligence two days ago due to his threatening to kill one of the party’s workers, is one of the greatest crimes, and if it were not for the complicity of members of Military Intelligence, this criminal and his sons would not have dared to carry out their threat the next day.

The Palestinian Authority is the one who bears the consequences of this crime. The names of those who carried out the aggression are known to it, and the evidence for their crime is a list of witnesses and videos, and this crime reflects the situation in which the elements of the security services trained by General Dayton and called them “the new Palestinian!”, the Palestinian who is hostile to the people of Palestine and advocates of Islam and is proud of the occupation and its service.

And that the Palestinian Authority and its security services are responsible for the crimes of its elements, and that this aggression has its aftermath, and this is suspended on the Palestinian Authority’s performance towards these criminals. Either it confirms that it is responsible for their crime, or stops their hands and punishes those who committed this crime.
