Days of Palestine, Jerusalem -Israeli Magistrate Court in Jerusalem ruled on Tuesday to keep world’s youngest prisoner in custody despite being below age of legal responsibility.
The Israeli court decided that the little Palestinian boy Ali Alqam, 11 years old, is a “terrorist;” therefore, he must stay locked up.
So that, the court decided he would be sent to a prison supervised by the Israeli welfare ministry for one year until he is 12; the legal responsibility age for the Palestinians under Israeli occupation.
Calling him a “terrorist,” the Israeli court ruled that the Israeli authorities cannot arrest or interrogate an 11-year-old “terrorist” under any condition. However, he had been already interrogated even when he was under treatment in the Israeli Hadassah Ein Kerem Medical Centre.
While he is in custody, his parent can visit him and he can take very short vacations, and in a year, the Magistrate Court is to hold another hearing for him, taking into account the evaluations of ministry of welfare officials.
