<p>OSLO, (PIC)&#8211; The European network to support the rights of Palestinian Prisoners-UFree demanded the Israeli occupation authority (IOA) to immediately release Palestinian journalist Samer Allawi.</p>
<p>Allawi works as a reporter for Al-Jazeera satellite channel in Afghanistan and was detained on Tuesday on his way to Jordan after he visited his family in his hometown, Sebastia village in Nablus city.</p>
<p>UFree condemned this action as further proof that Israel does not respect freedom of opinion and expression, especially since Allawi arrived in the occupied Palestinian authorities on a private family visit.</p>
<p>UFree called on the IOA to necessarily treat Allawi properly and not to use any kind of physical and psychological pressure against him.</p>
<p>It also appealed to the international federation of journalists and reporters without borders to intervene with the IOA to secure his immediate release.</p>
<p>For its part, the forum of Palestinian journalists denounced the IOA for kidnapping Allawi after he finished a regular family visit to his hometown.</p>
<p>In a statement, the forum stated that this detention is part of Israel&#8217;s continued violation of media freedom and its harassment of journalists even when they work in other countries. </p>
<p>The forum held the IOA fully responsible for the safety of Allawi and expressed fear that his detention was part of Israel&#8217;s malicious intelligence activities, especially since it was not the first time this journalist visited his family in Nablus city.</p>
