Prisoner to start hunger strike over rearrest

A 31-year-old prisoner says he will go on open hunger strike on Sunday in protest over Israeli efforts to cancel his amnesty.Ayman Abu Daoud was pardoned under the Oct. 2011 prisoner swap deal between Israel and Hamas. He was rearrested in February and is being held at Megiddo prison."All doors are closed in my face and the Israeli administration wants to sentence me for 36 years. I am desperate and I will start a hunger strike on Sunday until I am free from this detention," Abu Daoud told the Ahrar Prisoners Center.Abu Daoud previously served seven years of his sentence for injuring an Israeli settler. Israeli authorities also demolished his home.
