Dear Mr Hague
You will be aware of the Palestinian hunger striker Khader Adnan, who has now been on hunger strike in Israeli detention for more than sixty days. In December 2011, Khader Adnan was kidnapped from his home in the West Bank in a night raid carried out by Israeli soldiers, and is currently held under administrative detention orders without charge or trial. As Amnesty International has pointed out,"Administrative detention is a procedure under which detainees are held without charge or trial for periods of up to six months, which can be renewed repeatedly. Under administrative detention, detainees' rights to a fair trial as guaranteed by Article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) are consistently violated.’
Khader Adnan started his hunger strike on 18 December, protesting at being detained without charges or being notified of the reason for his detention and subject to inhumane and humiliating treatment. He is one of hundreds of Palestinians held under administrative detention orders without charge or trial, orders which can be renewed.
Israel is currently holding 309 Palestinians in administrative detention, including one man who has been held for over five years, and 24 Palestinian Legislative Council members. Israel’s practice of administrative detention as a tool of political oppression is a grave violation of the fourth Geneva Convention as well as the Convention on Civil and Political Rights, and the Convention Against Torture.
I urge you to make immediate representations to the Israeli Government to save the life of Khader Adnan and to make public these representations. I also call on you to speak out against Israel’s policies of torture and ill-treatment of detainees, solitary confinement and isolation, the use of military courts in the occupied Palestinian territory that illegally try civilians, undermining a fair trial by using secret evidence against the accused, and arresting vulnerable groups, such as children, disabled, elderly and ill people.
