The occupation authorities decided to release the body of Fouad Abu Rajab to his family in order to bury him in the West Bank on Monday.

Al-Dameer organization lawyer, Mohammad Mahmoud, explained that the Israeli authorities decided to release the body of Martyr Fouad Abu Rajab at 5 p.m. near Bytonia checkpoint in order to bury him in the village of Jdayreh north west of Jerusalem.

Fouad passed away after carrying out a shooting attack against occupation soldiers in Salah Eddin Street in Jerusalem on the 8th of last March. His family (father and eight brothers) were deported from the city of Jerusalem after he had carried out the attack. His father was arrested for 11 days under the pretext of prior knowledge to his son’s intent as well as helping him in the shooting; Fouad is the oldest amongst his brothers and sisters.
