After detaining the body for 4 months…the martyr Wadi’ Abu Rammouz is buried under harsh conditions
May 31, 2023

After midnight, the body of the Jerusalemite martyr Wadi’ Abu Rammouz was buried in the Lions Gate cemetery, 4 months after his martyrdom and his body was kept in refrigerators.

The occupation authorities imposed a tight siege around the Lions Gate cemetery, and the place where the martyr’s body was handed over, and the forces deployed in large numbers in the place and inside the cemetery.

The forces dispersed the young men who had gathered on the road to the cemetery and prevented them from standing there.

Mohammad Mahmoud, a lawyer for the Wadi Hilweh Information Center - Jerusalem, said that the handover of the body took place under harsh procedures and conditions from the police, by limiting the number of participants in the funeral, as the number did not exceed 30 people, and placing a “bracelet” on their hands to “count the numbers,” and confiscating their phones.

Lawyer Mohammad Mahmoud explained that the police prevented flags and banners from being raised during the funeral, and also stipulated that the delivery of the body be at the place of burial, and it was forbidden to transfer it to the hospital for shrouding and washing it, and it will all take place inside the cemetery, and pointed out that it imposed on the family 10 thousand shekels to ensure "the implementation of the conditions."

The center's lawyer pointed out that the ongoing follow-up of the shooting file against Abu Rammouz, and the Supreme Court's approval of handing over the body indicates that the evidence about his participation in the confrontations in Silwan is weak, especially since one of the boys who was with him and was injured in the same incident, was released after several days.

Lawyer Mahmoud explained that he submitted a petition to the Supreme Court last March, requesting that the body of the martyr Abu Rammouz be handed over for burial, and the Supreme Court approved the petition.

On the twenty-seventh of last January, Wadi’ Abu Rammouz, a young man from the town of Silwan, was martyred due to his injury in the town of Silwan.

Confrontations

After the burial of the body of the martyr Abu Rammouz, clashes broke out in the Bi’er Ayoub and Ein Al-Lozeh neighborhoods in the town of Silwan.
