Host: “He [Al-Tabsh] remained a hero, fighting the occupation until the arrival of the early revolutionaries and the homeland’s free men who established the Palestinian Authority. He joined the Palestinian police. He was a role model and symbol of generosity and discipline. Afterwards, Tarek transferred to the [West] Bank districts in order to continue in the service of his people. While on his way back to Gaza, occupation forces arrested him, and he was sentenced to life in prison.”
