The Commission of Detainees' Affairs stated that a crime is
being committed at the medical level against the detainee
Muwafaq Erouq, 77, who has cancer and going on a difficult
health condition after removing a large part of his stomach and
intestines.
The Commission also stated that the detainee is suffering from
severe pains and high temperature and that he lost weight and
could not eat or drink. He is being fed through a tube inserted in
his abdomen.
The Commission warned of the repeated transfer of the detainee
between Berzilai Hospital and Al-Ramlah clinic, which increase
his pain and worsen his health condition.
Doctors diagnosed him with cancer in the liver and stomach last
July, but the administration of prison procrastinated in his
chemotherapy which worsened his health condition.
It is worth mentioning that the detainee Muwafaq, from Yafa-
Nasrah, is imprisoned since 2003 and sentenced to 30 years of
imprisonment.
