“At a press conference at the mourners’ tent in Jabal Mukkaber on Sunday, Nov. 23, 2014, [PA] Mufti of Jerusalem Sheikh Muhammad Hussein called on the occupation authorities to return the bodies of the Martyrs (Shahids) to their relatives and the members of their village quickly, so that they may hold the funeral rites required by Muslim Shari’ah. Hussein continued: ‘It is the Martyrs’ right for us to pray for them, and this is a right according to Shari’ah. Their relatives, friends and loved ones also have the right to see them one last time, and no one gains anything from keeping the Martyrs’ bodies.’...
Raed Bashir, the attorney of the family of Martyrs Ghassan and Uday Abu Jamal and advisor of the Jabal Mukkaber Lands Defense Council, said: ‘The occupation authorities’ recent destruction of dozens of homes in the village of Jabal Mukkaber comes as part of the policy of collective punishment Israel is adopting against the residents of Jerusalem.’ At a press conference today at the home of Martyrs [Ghassan and Uday] Abu Jamal in Jabal Mukkaber, Bashir noted...: ‘Given that the occupation forces are responsible for the deaths of 8 people in the operation (i.e., the Jerusalem synagogue terror attack) - 6 settlers and the Martyrs Ghassan and Uday Abu Jamal - an indictment must be submitted against Prime Minister of the occupation Netanyahu, as he is responsible for the events in Jerusalem.’”
