CPJ MENA
CPJ is deeply alarmed by reports that Palestinian journalist Mujahed Bani Moflh, who was released from Israeli custody this year, is facing life-altering health consequences. Bani Moflh was reportedly subjected to serious abuse and medical neglect during his detention, including the denial of care for a pre-existing condition. His family attributes his current condition to his mistreatment in custody. His failing health reflects a broader issue: no journalist should ever leave prison only to face a prolonged hospitalization.
