A member of the Palestinian parliament will spend 15 months in an Israeli prison for incitement to violence.
An Israeli military court also convicted Khalida Jarrar of belonging to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, an illegal organization banned by Israel. The plea agreement reached on Dec. 7 also carries a 10-month suspended sentence and a fine of approximately $2,600, according to Haaretz.
Jarrar was arrested at her West Bank home in April. Her lawyer said she agreed to the plea because she doesn’t trust the court. — jta
