Tali Fahima, Israeli peace activist arrested for interrogation by GSS

Today the court led by judge Ariel Hazak approved Shabak`s (Shabak, AKA Shin Bet, AKA General Security Service) request to hold Tali Fahima in arrest for 11 more days in Shabak facilities, instead of continuing the administrative detention. The Shabak refused to say what are the new suspicions, they allegedly want to investigate her about, despite the judge's request to hear the details. The judge, who is not familiar with the previous materials in this case, accepted Shabak`s version and approved the detention.
It is unclear why Fahima was held for several months in detention if only now, as Shabak claims, they have found evidence that can enable them to bring her to trial.
We are aware that Tali Fahima`s name and fate is mentioned and used as a threat by Shabak when investigating peace activists in Israel.
Tali Fahima has been declared a political prisoner by Amnesty International.
We call on Shabak to stop harassing Tali Fahima and on the Justice System to stop co-operating with this abuse of democratic legal procedures.
