OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) has been imposing house arrest on the Israeli journalist Anat Kam for three months for leaking secret information regarding the IOA deliberate killing of two Jihad activists in Jenin district. The British Independent newspaper published on Tuesday said that Kam, who used to work for Walla news agency, had leaked secret documents during her service in the army that detailed the assassination crime and the legal violations involved. The report said that the charges leveled against Kam, 23, would entail prolonged incarceration if she is indicted for photocopying secret documents while in service. It said that two of the Islamic Jihad movement cadres were killed in Kufr Dan village, west of Jenin, in June 2007 while they could have been arrested alive.
