25 March 2009 In a continuance of the security
campaign launched against the MB this month, security
forces arrested 14 MB leaders and members early
Wednesday morning, March 25.
From Barakat El-Sab’, Menoufiyya five were arrested
after barbarously raiding and searching their houses.
They are: Othman El-Sharqawy, Mohamed El-Mahdy, Khaled
El-Sawy, Tarek Mohamed, and Dr. Ahmed Shahin.
The remaining nine are from Sharqiyyah, eight of them
from Dirb Nagm and another from Zaqazeeq. They are:
Dr. Nagy Saqr (a surgeon and MB candidate in the 2007
Shura elections) who was absent at the time of the
raid and his older brother, ‘Alaa Saqr (Chemistry
Teacher and a Sharqiyya MB leader), Mohammed
AbdulWahab (Researcher), Dr. Abdul-Hamid Kamel (PhD in
Agricultural Sciences, 1995), Mahmud El-Wahid (MB
candidate in 2005 Parliament elections), Mohamed Salem
(Math Instructor), Fawzy Abdul-Hamid Mahrat (a school
manager), Hilal Abdul-Hady (a teacher), and Mahmud
Seif (Follow-up manager at the Dirb Nagm water
station). The Egyptian-sponsored
swap deal talks resumed Meanwhile, Ali
Baraka, the deputy representative of Hamas in Syria,
stated Wednesday that the Egyptian-brokered talks with
the Israeli occupation authority about the prisoner
swap deal had resumed.
He pointed out that Israel finally came to realize
that its pressures on Hamas would not deter it from
its demands.
Baraka said that the Israeli campaign of pressures on
Hamas through kidnapping its leaders in the West Bank
and imposing restrictions on Palestinian prisoners to
force it to backtrack on its demands did not succeed.
The Hamas leader added that the Israeli government
realized it had no choice but to fulfill the
Palestinian resistance's demands in order to release
its captive soldier Gilad Shalit, warning that the
fate of Shalit could be like that of Ron Arad,
Israel's missing pilot, if the Israeli government did
not respond to the resistance's demands. |
