The Palestinian Prisoner Club revealed Sunday that Israeli prison authorities deliberately denied treatment to 15-year-old detainee Muhammad Hamid after he contracted scabies, according to Shehab Wire. The organization characterized the withholding of medical care as a deliberate medical crime that resulted in the deterioration of the child's condition.
The allegation adds to documented concerns about healthcare provision in Israeli detention facilities, particularly for minors held in the prison system.
