Saraya_prisonHamas’ charm offensive touting law and order included a media tour of Gaza’s Saraya prison, attended by Reuters, among others. What Nidal al-Mughrabi’s coverage doesn’t mention is that an inmate accused of collaborating with Israel was found dead yesterday. The Jerusalem Post writes:

A Palestinian journalist in Gaza City said Duhmush had been handed over to Hamas a few days after he was captured by Islamic Jihad members. “I heard from people who saw the body that he had been brutally tortured in the Hamas prison,” he said.

Canada’s CTV also toured the prison.
