Violation: stop work notification served in west Ithna
Date:03/07/2014
Location: Ithna- Hebron governorate
Perpetrators: the Civil Administration of the occupation
Victims: residents of Ithna town
Details:
On 03/07/2014, the authorities of the occupation served two stop work orders under the pretext of unlicensed constructions for two residences in Ithna town, west of Hebron city.
The owners of the two residences asserted that “the Civil Administration of the occupation raided the area of al-Ras, west of the town, hanged the orders on the targeted structures, and took photos of them before they had left.
The orders requested the residents immediate construction termination despite the fact that the house was inhabited for years. Being lawful with Palestinian construction is the pretext under which the occupation justified its actions. Noteworthy, the occupation policy in demolishing structures is undertaken in three steps: first, serving a stop work order, second, demolition order, and finally the demolition process on the ground.
According to the orders, a session of Inspection Sub-Committee took place on the 21/07/2014 to consider demolishing the structure or leave it to its original status.
