Israel rejects to hand over body of slain Palestinian killed yesterday in Jerusalem


JERUSALEM: Israeli occupation police Wednesday refused to hand over the body of the slain Palestinian minor Shadi Sheha,16, from the town of Anata, east of Jerusalem, unless he was buried outside the town.

Sheha’s family said that the occupation authorities stipulated that he be buried outside the town, but the family refuses to receive him under this condition, and insists on burying him in his hometown and in his town of Anata.

Meanwhile, colonists from Pisgat Ze’ev colony, built on citizens’ lands east of Jerusalem, opened fire on the village’s homes, but no injuries were reported.

It is noteworthy that the Sheha was killed by Israeli occupation in the town of Anata yesterday evening while working in a car wash he owns in the area.
