Hamas renews call for Saudi Arabia to release all Palestinian detainees

On the issue of Saudi detention of Palestinians, including Hamas envoy Dr Mohammad al Khoudari, Hamas Spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said “There is no justification for detention of Hamas official Dr Mohammad al Khoudri, his son and all other Palestinians in Saudi jails”.

The Palestinians in the Persian Gulf State should be honoured for serving the Saudi Kingdom and its people instead of being detained and tortured, especially that they have not committed any offence or felony, Barhoum added.

“It is time to release them all as the Muslim world is marking the Islamic holy month of Ramadan”.

The Saudi authorities have a religious and moral duty to immediately release them and return them to their families, Hamas spokesman noted.
