Alongside
the launch of "If I were in Palestine..." a photo exhibition
highlighting the struggles of Palestinian political prisoners hosted in
the European Parliament from 5-9 September,
advocates for Palestinian prisoners - with unique histories as a former
prisoner and a former jailer - will speak about their experiences and
the current situation of Palestinian prisoners struggling for justice.
Salah
Hamouri will speak about the seven years he spent in Israeli prison,
including his time as an administrative detainee without charge or
trial. As a French-Palestinian citizen, his arrest was the subject of a
significant campaign in France for his freedom. Today, he is a lawyer
with Addameer Prisoner Support and Human Rights Association, defending
the rights of Palestinian political prisoners.
Yamin
Zeidan is a former prison guard in Israeli prisons, who drastically
changed his career and life, becoming a lawyer representing Palestinian
political prisoners after personally witnessing the circumstances under
which Palestinians are imrprisoned.
The event will take place in English. Please note that we will begin promptly at 7 pm.
Organized by Palestina Solidariteit, Intal, and Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network.
