Russian Compound, Jerusalem - Danger to Regional Security, Remand Extension
Translation: Diana Rubanenko
Russian Compound
Judge: Major Moshe Levy
Police investigator: Omri Awwida
Defence Attorneys: Ma’amun Hashim, Majd Hamdan, Ismail Tawil - not present in the courtroom because he has no entry permit to Jerusalem.
5 cases in the docket
Today we returned to the period when remand extensions at the Russian Compound detention were conducted like conveyor-belt. Five cases, to each 3-5 minutes were devoted, with the aim of reaching agreement between the defence and police, in the shortest time possible. The judge granted the police request to extend detention except in one case. The charges were 'membership and activities in an illegal association' and 'activity against the security of the region'. The suspects sat in silence, and it was only when the lawyer of two of them was not in the courtroom, that they were asked if they had anything to say.
