7-year-old Palestinian girl denied visit to jailed mother


zionist forces have denied a 7-year-old Palestinian girl permission to visit her Ukrainian-born mother who is serving 20 years in a zionist jail.

Ghazala Sarahna has lived with her grandparents in the Deheisha refugee camp south of Bethlehem since her mother was jailed on 23 May 2002. She has a Palestinian birth certificate, but she does not have a Palestinian identity number.


She used to visit her mother in jail using her birth certificate as identification. Recently the colonizer authorities decided to stop her visits to her mother because she has no identity number.She can not be issued an identity card issued as her parents are both serving prison sentences.


Ghazala's grandfather appealed to Abbas and the Palestinian Authority to intervene to help Ghazala visit her mother.
