Unidentified persons torch Tamimi’s vehicle in al-Khalil

Unidentified persons torched the car of former Palestinian Chief Justice Dr. Tayseer Rajab Tamimi, at about two o’clock in the morning, where the car was parked next to his house, in Jabal Abu Rumman in the city of al-Khalil.

Tamimi told media immediately after burning his vehicle that what happened was a deliberate act designed to blow up his house and to assassinate him, where the car was parked near the kitchen and close to several gas cylinders.

“It was an attempt to muzzle the mouths,” he said, explaining that he had been subjected to undisclosed harassment after announcing the formation of his new party under the name of the Freedom and Independence Party (GUARD) to defend the holy sites and constants.
