HCJ 2969/15 - Omar et al. v. Commander of the Israeli Military Forces in the West Bank et al. Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus
HaMoked's habeas corpus petition concerning a stateless Palestinian living in the West Bank. The man is inside Israel and has even been sentenced to two and a half years in prison. The court is requested to instruct the state to uphold its duty and notify the man's family of his whereabouts and the legal grounds for holding him. The state has breached this duty, which stems from a basic right of the Palestinian man and his family and is entrenched in statutory law and case law.
