Austrian authorities have arrested a young Palestinian from the Gaza Strip, Abdel Karim Abu Habal, 27, at the request of the occupation authorities since September 2016.

Abu Habel's wife said that her husband traveled to Turkey in 2016 and stayed for two weeks before moving to Austria, where he stayed for 4 months. His return was ready and waiting for coordination. He was arrested by the Austrian authorities on 20-7-2017.

She added that "the reason for his arrest is incitement to Israel according to what the Palestinian embassy in Austria told us, and his arrest was at the request of the occupation," stressing that the embassy told them there are fears of Austrian authorities handing him over to the occupation authorities.

His wife said that the staff of the embassy visited him twice, and the Austrian court held a trial session in March, and postponed to the twenty-eighth of last April, and the family until the moment

did not know what happened in the session.

She reported that her husband is a prisoner released from Israeli prisons. He was arrested by the Israeli occupation forces in 2004 when he was 14 years old. The occupation released him in 2013 after being imprisoned for nine years.
