Israel
rearrests Hamas lawmaker in West Bank

Ramallah: Israeli
soldiers arrested Hamas lawmaker Muhammad Natsheh early Monday at
his home in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, Hamas officials
said.
They said the soldiers searched Natsheh's home before taking him
away.
Natsheh is the sixth Hamas lawmaker to be rearrested by Israel
since December.
Israel arrested several members of Hamas' senior leadership in the
summer of 2006, in retaliation for the abduction of an Israeli
soldier, Gilad Shalit, who is still being held captive in Gaza.
Israel gradually released most, but this winter detained several
of them again.
Natsheh was released from prison in September after serving almost
nine years, six of them in solitary confinement, said Hamas
sources.
