A military court in the Gaza Strip gave two suspects who were members of the security forces in the enclave ten days to hand themselves in or be sentenced in absentia, the Safa news agency reported.
In a statement, the court said officers Mohammad Ibrahim Abed and Said Hamad Abu-Maghasib have ten days to turn themselves in to the police starting from 31 December 2018. Anyone found to be helping them evade capture was also warned that this is a punishable offense.
Military courts in the Gaza Strip have jurisdiction over members of the security forces and those charged with collaborating with the occupation.
