Sheikh Ismat Hamuri (56), a resident of East Jerusalem and a preacher at the Al-Aqsa Mosque, was arrested yesterday on suspicion of committing offenses of identifying with a terrorist organization, publishing praise that could lead to terrorism and conduct that could violate public peace.

This is after a documentary says in front of an audience: "Whoever wants to liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque will liberate it only with the help of weapons and force and in the Muslim Union."

He is also suspected of identifying with a senior figure in a terrorist organization.



"These words are clear words of praise and incitement," Jerusalem Justice of the Peace Bialin Elazar noted, extending Hamori's detention by three days.
