Hamas to sue Israel over organ harvesting

GAZA, Jan. 27 (Xinhua) -- The deposed Hamas government in the Gaza Strip is calling on the Palestinians to feed it with information to support its quest to sue Israel over alleged organ harvesting, Hamas' Justice Minister said Wednesday.

"We have published advertisements in the Palestinian newspapers calling on the citizens in Gaza to give us whatever information they have to take advantage from it," said the minister Mohammed al-Ghoul.

"We are preparing to collect evidence confirming that the ( Israeli) occupation had stolen parts from dead martyrs," he added in a statement sent to the press. "We intend to file a suit against Israel before international courts."

In December, Eissa Qaraqe, minister of prisoners affairs, said Israel keeps bodies of Palestinian people in secret cemeteries and refuses to hand them over to their families "to hide the fact of stealing their body parts."

"There is an Israeli mafia trading with the body limbs and some of the Palestinian families received bodies of their sons with some organs taken away," Qaraqe added.

In the same month, a report by Israel's Channel 2 television sparked a controversy when former director of the Israeli Forensic Medicine Institute, in an interview, confirmed that skin and corneas were taken from dead Palestinian bodies in the 90s.
