Israel releases 14-year-old Palestinian girl from jail


"Israel's military charged al-Khatib with stone throwing and possession of a knife. Under a plea bargain, she was sentenced to two months in prison and a $1,500 fine.

"Her family said Sunday she was released on Friday after a month and a half. Israeli prison spokeswoman Sivan Weitzman said she was released early to make more room in the crowded jail." News Link

"I do not admit to any crime: I was not throwing stones -- I had no knife on me," Malak al-Khatib told AFP...

"After two hours of interrogation, a soldier forced me to sign a paper in Hebrew," said Khatib, who does not understand the language." News Link
