Court Denies Police Appeal to Keep Two Leftist Activists in Custody

(25.1.2016) The police investigation against Nawi and Butavia, which was sparked by a report on the investigative television program “Uvda,” found that about 18 months ago, Nawi disclosed information about a land swap between a Palestinian resident of the South Hebron Hills, referred to in court documents as Abu Khalil, and a settler referred to as Yonatan. The information was given to a relative of Abu Khalil’s who was liable to be harmed by the deal, but as far as is known, it was never given to the Palestinian Authority. Shortly thereafter, Abu Khalil died.
