OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- The Gaza prisoners in Israeli Shatta jail castigated the Red Cross as well as Palestinian institutions concerned with prisoners for ignoring their issue. They told chairwoman of the Mandela foundation catering for prisoners lawyer Buthaina Al-Dakmak, who called on them on Saturday, that no one really cared about them. The prisoners said that they are deprived of family visits and lawyers scarcely visit them, noting that they are allowed to phone their relatives once every two months, which, they said, is not enough.
