Sources: Palestinian detainee died from torture

PA Prisoners Affairs Minister Issa Qaraqe said on Sunday that Arafat Jaradat, the Palestinian detainee who died in an Israeli prison had been tortured to death, and did not die of a heart attack.
PA Central Committee Member Jibril Rajoub told Channel 2 that he holds Israel responsible for Jaradat's death. Rajoub added that the current riots are not a third intifada but are a protest that underline the importance and sensitivity of the prisoner issue to the Palestinians.
