” we will officially ask the government of Israel to allow Palestinian prisoners in its prisons and detention facilities to exercise their right to vote in the Palestinian elections as their right given to them by the Palestinian law and order,” said Hussein Al-Sheikh, chairman of the General Authority for Civil Affairs and member of Fatah Central Committee in a tweet.
He said that Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails have the right to vote in the elections under the supervision of the Palestinian Central Elections Committee CEC, just as the law gives them the right to run.
