<p style="font-size:10pt;">TULKAREM, (PIC)&#8211; The Palestinian  prisoner committee said the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) refused  to allow its lawyer to visit senior Hamas official Ra&#8217;fat Nasif who is  going on hunger strike in protest at the arbitrary measures taken  against him by the prison administration.</p>
<div style="font-size:10pt;">The committee added that Nasif decided  to go on hunger strike because of maltreatment, his detention in Megiddo  prison and depriving him of his right as an administrative detainee.</p>
<p>The  committee expressed its deep concern for his life because of his  insistence on not ceasing his hunger strike and appealed to the Red  Cross to visit him immediately and follow up his health condition.</p>
<p>For  its part, the higher national committee for the support of prisoners  warned that any deterioration occurs to the health of prisoner Nasif as a  result of the hunger strike could strain the situation in all Israeli  jails and prompt other prisoners to escalate their protests in  solidarity with him.</p>
<p>Nasif, 45, is a member of Hamas&#8217;s political  bureau, and has been in administrative detention since March 2009  without any charges leveled against him.</p></div>
