OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- The International campaign for the release of kidnapped Palestinian lawmakers has warned that health of MP Mohammed Totah was deteriorating more and more while in the sit-in tent, urging the international community to break its silence and to support the legitimacy in Palestine.
According to the human rights group, Totah is suffering of acute flu, fatigue and frequently faints while inside the sit-in tent as a result to the long years he spent in the Israeli jails where Palestinian prisoners of wars are denied proper medical treatment.
The group further said that the Israeli Occupation continues to violate the rights of the elected representatives of the Palestinian people. MP Totah who suffered medical neglect during his incarceration in Israeli jails was handed the deportation order shortly after he was released from jail three months ago.
Moreover, the campaign condemned the unexplainable silence on the part of the Arab, Muslim, and international parliaments regarding the case of the three Palestinian lawmakers who are threatened with expulsion from the occupied city of Jerusalem, urging those parliaments to give more attention to the MPs' condition and to pressure the IOA to revoke the deportation order being illegal under international laws and statutes.
Comrade of Totah, MP Ahmad Atton, who is also with Totah in the sit-in tent, deplored the feeble international reaction over the deportation order, adding that their case was deliberately neglected on the Arab, Muslim, and the international levels in addition to weak media coverage.
"I wonder what the international community is waiting for to stop this farce that we face, are they waiting till the tent becomes the shelter for thousands of Palestinian Jerusalemites threatened to be exiled", Atton said.
In this regard, the sit-inner MP urged all those with a conscience to support the Palestinian people in occupied Jerusalem, stressing that Palestinian Jerusalemites need every help that could strengthen their steadfastness and help them block the Israeli schemes to emptying the city of its real inhabitants that is the Palestinian people.
