RAMALLAH, (PIC)-- Hamas lawmakers in the West Bank have denounced the PA preventive security apparatus for storming the home of MP Sheikh Hassan Yousef who was Tuesday released from Israeli occupation jails.
A statement by the lawmakers on Wednesday said that the preventive security agents broke into the home of Sheikh Yousef and confiscated the green banners and flags of Hamas in blatant violation of his immunity and in violation of the reconciliation atmosphere.
Dr. Sami Abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman in Gaza, condemned the act in a press release on Wednesday, adding that it displayed the moral degradation of those security apparatuses.
He urged PA chief Mahmoud Abbas to issue a decree binding those apparatuses with the reconciliation agreement and atmosphere or else they would continue to threaten national relations.
Ismail Radwan, a Hamas leader in Gaza, also denounced the act only one day after Yousef’s release from Israeli occupation jails.
He said in a press release that the security apparatus’s “shameful” behavior ran contrary to efforts aimed at applying the reconciliation agreement.
