Palestinian Authority PM’s Convoy Stopped for Reckless Driving
Israeli police say they briefly pulled over the Palestinian Authority Prime Minister’s convoy for reckless driving, sparking a diplomatic spat.
While police say they quickly allowed the convoy to pass, the Palestinians say the incident was a violation of their rights.
Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld says Rami Hamdallah’s car and another vehicle were stopped Tuesday for speeding and “overtaking every vehicle in a dangerous way.”
Rosenfeld says after identifying Hamdallah, police immediately allowed the cars to continue on. However, the two drivers face police questioning.
Ehab Bseiso, a spokesman for Hamdallah, says the incident “shines a light on the many violations committed against Palestinians every day.”
