<p style="font-size:10pt;">RAMALLAH, (PIC)&#8211; Spokesman for the  Palestinian authority&#8217;s security militias Adnan Addamiri said Monday  that the Palestinian organisation of Hizb Attahrir is banned and not  allowed to get involved in any activity in the West Bank.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Addamiri told Al-Quds Al-Arabi newspaper  that Hizb Attahrir was banned because it does not recognize the  Palestinian regime in the West Bank and verbally attacks all PA  institutions, claiming that this faction also does not recognize the  Palestinian flag and the national anthem.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Hizb Attahrir had said that the PA  militias kidnapped a 100 of its cadres during last week and also  detained some families of its cadres in order to pressure them to turn  themselves in.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In another context, secretary-general of  Al-Ahrar Movement Khaled Abu Hilal stated that the PA&#8217;s persistence in  detaining and torturing Palestinian resistance fighters is aimed at  dispersing the Palestinian people&#8217;s efforts and distracting them from  confronting the crimes committed against them by the Israeli occupation.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Abu Hilal made his remarks on Sunday  during a sit-in held outside the Palestinian legislative council (PLC)  in solidarity with the political detainees in PA jails.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">He underlined in his speech that the  intelligence apparatus was mainly created to protect the citizens from  any external threats, but when this apparatus turns into a security  contractor, its members become militia men hostile to the Palestinian  people.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Al-Ahrar official urged in this regard the PLC to enact a law classifying the security apparatuses as illegal militias.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In a ceremony held yesterday in Gaza to  honor some security officers, Palestinian minister of interior Fathi  Hammad stated that his ministry affords all Palestinian factions and  forces plenty of elbow room to hold their activities and events without  any restrictions and according to the law.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Hammad underscored that his ministry needs  the cooperation of all factions in order to provide security protection  necessary for holding their activities and events without any  distrubances.</p>
