Posted text: “Director of [PLO] Commission of Prisoners’ Affairs Qadri Abu Bakr expressed hope that the prisoner exchange deal being discussed these days will be carried out quickly, in a manner that is appropriate for the years of their lives that our heroes have sacrificed…
Abu Bakr added: ‘We hope that the prisoner exchanges will focus on the prisoners who were arrested before the signing of the [1993] Oslo Accords, the veteran [prisoners], those who are serving life sentences, the sick, the female prisoners, and the children, because these groups are a priority for the prisoners’ movement and the entire Palestinian people.’
Abu Bakr said this during his visit… to a number of released prisoners and families of prisoners in the [Tulkarem] district…
He also visited the home of prisoner Osama Al-Ashqar (i.e., terrorist, responsible for the murder of 8 people) in Saida, who has been imprisoned since 2002 and was sentenced to life, in order to take an interest in his mother’s health.”
