The Working Group on Arbitrary Detention was established in resolution 1991/42 of the Commission on Human Rights, which extended and clarified the Working Group’s mandate in its resolution 1997/50. The Human Rights Council assumed the mandate in its decision 1/102 and extended it for a three-year period in its resolution 15/18 of 30 September 2010. The mandate was extended for a further three years in resolution 24/7 of 26 September 2013. 2. In accordance with its methods of work (A/HRC/30/69), on 5 January 2016, the Working Group transmitted a communication to the Government of State of Israel concerning Khalida Jarrar. The Government has not replied to the communication. The State is a party to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. 3. The Working Group regards deprivation of liberty as arbitrary in the following cases: (a) When it is clearly impossible to invoke any legal basis justifying the deprivation of liberty (as when a person is kept in detention after the completion of his sentence or despite an amnesty law applicable to him) (category I); (b) When the deprivation of liberty results from the exercise of the rights or freedoms guaranteed by articles 7, 13, 14, 18, 19, 20 and 21 of the Universal

  • Urgent Action
    Further information on UA: 187/17 Index: MDE 15/7232/2017 Israel/ Occupied Palestinian Territories Date: 9 October 2017 URGENT ACTION PALESTINIAN WOMEN’S UNION LEADER RELEASED Palestinian women’s union leader Khitam Saafin was released from HaSharon prison in Israel on 1 October after serving three months in administrative detention without charge or trial. Member of the Palestinian parliament, Khalida Jarrar remains held in HaSharon prison under a six month administrative detention order. On 1 October, Khitam Saafin was released from HaSharon prison in Israel after serving the entirety of her three month administrative detention term. According to Addameer Association’s lawyers who represent both women, the Israel military commander issued a three-month administrative detention order, without charge or trial, against Khitam Saafin on 9 July. The decision was confirmed by a military judge on 12 July. Israeli authorities accused Khitam Saafin of membership in an illegal organization, which she denied. Following her release, Khitam Saafin spoke to Amnesty International on 4 October and shared the following message: “I am thankful to those who took action on my behalf. I am also happy that I am released but at the same time sad that I left 56 women in Israeli jails who are suffering from poor conditions, especially those that need medical treatment.” Khalida Jarrar, who is an elected parliamentarian, has been held in HaSharon prison inside Israel since 2 July. She was given a six-month administrative detention order on 12 July and a military judge confirmed the decision on 18 July. This order is expected to end on 2 January 2018.

  • Joint Public Statement
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Joint Public Statement Complaint submitted to the United Nations concerning the Israeli military arrest, detention and indictment of the Palestinian human rights defender, Ms Khalida Jarrar London, Ramallah and New York, 16 June 2015 - Lawyers for Palestinian Human Rights (LPHR), Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association (Addameer) and the National Lawyers Guild (NLG) have submitted a joint complaint to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of Human Rights Defenders (UNSR) concerning the Israeli military arrest, detention and indictment of the Palestinian human rights defender, Ms Khalida Jarrar. Ms Khalida Jarrar is a Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) member, lawyer and vice- chairperson of the Board of Directors of Addameer. She has been the head of the Prisoners Commission of the PLC since 2006, and was recently appointed to the Palestinian National Committee for the follow-up of the International Criminal Court. Ms Khalida Jarrar was arrested at her home on 2 April 2015 at approximately 1:30am, and held in detention under military administrative detention powers until 4 May 2015, when she was subsequently detained under military prosecution provisions. The 12 charges issued against Ms Khalida Jarrar indicates that her arrest, detention and indictment by Israeli military authorities are as a direct result of her human rights advocacy work on behalf of prisoners’ rights, and for exercising her rights to freedom of expression and freedom of assembly. Her trial will begin next Monday 22 June 2015. LPHR, Addameer and NLG are very seriously concerned that Ms Khalida Jarrar is being illegitimately targeted and punished by Israeli military authorities as a result of her significant work promoting and protecting the human rights of Palestinian prisoners.

THE JERUSALEM EMBASSY ACT OF 1995 Geoffrey R. Watson * Congress has voted to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. On October 24, 1995-the day of the Conference on Jeru- salem here at the Columbus School of Law of The Catholic University of America-Congress passed the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995.1 The President took no action on the Act, allowing it to enter into force on November 8, 1995.2 The Act states that a United States Embassy to Israel should be established in Jerusalem by May 31, 1999, and it provides for a fifty percent cut in the State Department's building budget if the Embassy is not opened by that time.' The Act permits the President to waive the budget cut for successive six-month periods if the President determines it is necessary to protect the "national security interests of the United States."' In these pages and elsewhere, several contributors to this symposium have addressed the policy questions raised by the Act.5 I will focus on the Act's interpretation.

  • Israel and the Occupied Territories 2015 Human Rights Report
    ISRAEL 2015 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Israel is a multiparty parliamentary democracy. Although it has no constitution, the parliament, the unicameral 120-member Knesset, has enacted a series of “Basic Laws” that enumerate fundamental rights. Certain fundamental laws, orders, and regulations legally depend on the existence of a “state of emergency,” which has been in effect since 1948. Under the Basic Laws, the Knesset has the power to dissolve the government and mandate elections. The nationwide Knesset elections in March, considered free and fair, resulted in a coalition government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security services. (An annex to this report covers human rights in the occupied territories. This report deals with human rights in Israel and the Israeli- occupied Golan Heights.) During the year according to Israeli Security Agency (ISA, also known as Shabak) statistics, Palestinians committed 47 terror attacks (including stabbings, assaults, shootings, projectile and rocket attacks, and attacks by improvised explosive devices (IED) within the Green Line that led to the deaths of five Israelis and one Eritrean, and two stabbing terror attacks committed by Jewish Israelis within the Green Line and not including Jerusalem. According to the ISA, Hamas, Hezbollah, and other militant groups fired 22 rockets into Israel and in 11 other incidents either planted IEDs or carried out shooting or projectile attacks into Israel and the Golan Heights.
