Maan News Agency: Human Rights Watch urges Hamas end harassment: BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Authorities in Gaza should halt interrogations, detentions, and harassment apparently aimed at intimidating civil society activists, Human Rights Watch said Monday.
"Hamas should respect their rights to freedom of expression and assembly, Human Rights Watch said in a report noting the arrest of youth activist Abu Yazan, who campaigned for Palestinian unity in March.
“If Hamas expects to be treated as a responsible governing authority, it should stop persecuting peaceful critics in Gaza,” said Joe Stork, deputy Mideast director at the New York-based rights group.
