    Swiss Police Arrest Electronic Intifada Director Ali Abunimah Ahead of Speaking Event in Zurich

    44 postsCrimeWorldCulture

    Ali Abunimah, the executive director of the pro-Palestinian media platform Electronic Intifada, was arrested by Swiss police in Zurich on Saturday. The arrest occurred ahead of a scheduled speaking event, one day after Abunimah arrived in Zurich for a speaking tour. He was questioned by police for an hour upon arrival at Zurich airport on Friday before being allowed entry into the country. The Electronic Intifada reported that Abunimah is currently being detained and has access to legal counsel. The arrest is seen as part of a broader backlash against expressions of solidarity with the Palestinian people, with similar incidents reported in other Western countries. Mario Fehr, the Head of the Department of Security, stated that Abunimah is forbidden to travel to Zurich, describing him as an 'Islamist Jew-hater who calls for violence in Switzerland.'
