Palestinian detainee, Riyadh Al Amour, has been on hunger strike since six days in protest to the bad living conditions, and frequent attacks carried out by Israeli soldiers guarding the prison.
The Palestinian Prisoners Society (PPS) stated that Al Amour was sentenced to one life term, and is suffering from several health conditions, including a heart disease as he previously underwent a heart surgery when the surgeons implanted a pacemaker.
The PPS added that the detainee needs frequent medical checkups, but the prison administration is denying him the right to proper medical attention.
It stated that there are more than 1000 detainees who need urgent medical attention and treatment but the Israeli Prison Authority is ignoring their basic, international guaranteed right to medical treatement.
