The Ramallah Grand Criminal Court sentenced a Palestinian identified only by his initials I.A. to life in prison with hard labor after it found him guilty of selling Palestinian land to Jews, the World Israel News website reports today (December 31, 2018).
The "unidentified" Palestinian is, in fact, Issam Akel, an Arab who holds American citizenship and an Israeli identification card.
He was brought before the court on December 23, and sentenced for "selling property in occupied Jerusalem to Jewish settlers."
The sale of land to Jews in Palestinian society is considered a religious offense as well as treason and can be punishable by death.
