The Ministerial Committee on Legislation is expected on Sunday to approve the "Gilad Schalit Law," proposed by MK Danny Danon (Likud), the parliamentarian said in a statement on Saturday night.
The law would prevent visits to Arab security prisoners held in Israeli jails, except for by lawyers and Red Cross personnel, so long as IDF soldier Gilad Schalit remains in Hamas captivity.
