[ISRAEL HAS NO LEGAL BASIS TO WITHHOLD CORPSES]

Israel is more than determined to collectively punish Palestinians even on a law that no longer exists or a law that has no legal jurisdiction on them. On top of that, the law relied on is not even faithfully adhered to by Israel.

What does Israeli Law say?

Israel’s favourite oppressive law Regulation 133(3) of the Defense Emergency Regulations 1945 states that :

it only applies to a person that has been lawfully convicted of a serious crime that warrants execution

The person has been legally executed in prison and;

The person MUST be buried in their own community

If Israel actually respect their own law, they would give a fine reading of the said provision. Nowhere in this the Emergency Regulations give power to withhold any dead bodies especially on civilians. 

We will continue calling out Israel’s blatant misuse and abuse of the law in oppressing Palestinians.
