Israel Rearrests another Hamas MP in WBank

Israel Rearrests another Hamas MP in WBank

30/12/2010 Israeli occupation troops on Thursday seized a Hamas member of the Palestinian parliament, the fifth to be rearrested recently after serving previous prison terms, local officials said.

MP Khalil al-Rabai was arrested at his home in the village of Yata, south of the city of Khalil, early on Thursday, municipal council officials said. Hamas sources said that his house was also thoroughly searched. The Israeli military had no immediate comment. Rabai was released last year after three years in an Israeli prison.

On Tuesday, occupation troops arrested Hamas MP Mohammad al-Tal in a similar dawn raid on his home in the village of Zakariya, also near Khalil. Like Rabai, Tal was set free last year after a three-year stretch in jail.
