<p style="font-size:10pt;">LONDON, (PIC)&#8211; Raed Salah, the leader of the Islamic Movement in Israel, has been released from the UK&#8217;s Bedford prison after a bail was set by the British High Court.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Salah was held for three weeks while in the United Kingdom after Home Secretary Theresa May claimed a travel ban had been issued against him because of anti-Semitism suspicions.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">In a statement, the Islamic Initiative in Britain (IIB) called the ruling a ”crushing defeat for the Zionist lobby,” which constantly tries to attack Palestinian leaders and pro-Palestinian activists.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">”The decision issued by the High Court confirms that the Home Secretary&#8217;s decision to keep Sheikh Raed in detention, in spite of the appeal against the deportation decision, was a political decision in flagrant violation of laws in force in Britain and the European Convention of Human Rights,” the statement says.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Commenting on Salah&#8217;s release, IIB head Mohammed Sawaliha said the decision was one of many that has done overall justice to the Palestinian cause in the face of the Zionist lobby&#8217;s intervention in the UK.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">”It is no doubt a victory, and the battle is still on until the British courts rule in favor of the appeal Salah has filed against the deportation decision in September,” Sawahila said.</p>
