I suppose what troubles me most is that he has been jailed for weeks now without being charged with anything. Here in Canada anyone if you are arrested then there is a burden upon the police and judicial system to bring you before a Magistrate for arraignment within 24 hours. I realise Israel is not Canada, but still this has to be what - 3 weeks now without even being charged with anything. I know we have forum members here who are living or haved lived in Israel and maybe they might answer a question: is this normal over there?
