The Palestinian Authority (PA) preventive security apparatus has released political detainee Alaa Basheer, from Qalqilya, on bail following a court verdict in this regard.
The decision to release her came after she was jailed illegally for about 40 days.
Lawyer Dafer Sa’aida said the magistrate court in Qalqilya ordered the release of Basheer on bail of 6,000 Jordanian dinars.
The PA preventive security rearrested Alaa al-Basheer, a holy Qur’an teacher from Qalqilya, two days after releasing her on June 13. She had spent over one month in her first detention.
The preventive security has fabricated accusations against Basheer in order to justify her detention. She was accused of inciting sectarian strife, one of the claims usually used by the PA security agencies against political detainees.
