PA Jails Atheist "For His Own Good"
by Maayana Miskin at Arutz Sheva https://www.legal-project.org/949/pa-jails-atheist-for-his-own-good Excerpt: Several weeks ago, Palestinian Authority police arrested 26-year-old Walid al-Husseini because of a series of anti-religious blog posts he had written. Now PA officials say Husseini is not in jail for his religious beliefs, but rather, for his own safety. If he is released, they say, he could be murdered. "It is impossible to release him because we are afraid he will be killed by his family," a PA officer told AFP. The officer said Husseini's family had disowned him. He was arrested after the owner of the Internet cafe he frequented turned pictures of his Facebook page over to PA intelligence officers. The PA conducted a special operation, monitoring Husseini for weeks and finally arresting him as he sat in the cafe.
