Nablus – Ma'an – Israel has agreed to remove 77 former Palestinian fighters from its list of "wanted" men as a continuation of its amnesty program, Palestinian sources said.
Palestinian Authority officials were handed a list on Monday night, naming the men who received a pardon, nearly all of them former fighters in the Fatah-affiliated Al-Aqsa Brigades in the West Bank.
During the past five years, the “wanted” men have signed a pledge renouncing the use of violence and turned in their weapons, agreeing to place themselves into PA police custody in a Nablus-area jail until their amnesty agreements were finalized by Israel.
Only 10 of the 77 men received a full pardon, allowing them to live at home and travel freely throughout the West Bank and outside of the country. Nineteen were given a minimal pardon, allowed to move freely in the West Bank during the day but required to sleep in the prison. Forty-six were granted a partial pardon, and will be able to move freely in the West Bank, but not pass its borders. They are also permitted to sleep at home, but will be required to check in at the detention center periodically.
Their names are as follows:
