Jerusalem: Israel has arrested the coach of a Palestinian football club after his team posed with a banner celebrating a gunman who killed two Israelis, his lawyer said yesterday.
Maher Abu Sanina was arrested on Sunday morning, lawyer Mohammed Mahmoud said, a week after players for the Jerusalem-based Hilal Al Quds club posed with a banner hailing Misbah Abu Sbeih as a "martyr" and "hero" before a game.
On October 9, the 39-year-old Palestinian went on a shooting rampage in Jerusalem, killing a police officer and a 60-year-old Israeli woman before being shot dead. Abu Sanina will appear in court on Wednesday, Mahmoud said.
