Fahmi Shabana Threatens a Bombshell Against Abbas & PA Officials


Editor's Note:

As expected, more Israeli pressures will be escalating to force Abbas to go back to the phony and endless negotiations. The former Palestinian intelligence officer, who is under Israeli protection now, is threatening to uncover more of the Abbas administration scandals if the acting Palestinian President does not succumb to the Israeli pressures (though Shabana puts it as forming a new investigative committee).

Shabana threatens a bombshell against Abbas, PA officials

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)--

Fahmi Shabana Al-Tamimi, the Palestinian intelligence officer who exposed a number of financial and moral scandals in the PA in Ramallah city, has threatened Tuesday to drop a bomb shell that would block Mahmoud Abbas's participation in the upcoming Arab summit.

Shabana said that he wouldn’t cooperate with the "nominal" committee that was formed by Abbas to investigate the moral scandals that he tabled against Rafiq Al-Husseini, the director of Abbas's office, citing the presence of Azzam Al-Ahmad as a member of the committee although he (Al-Ahmad) was accused by Shabana of embezzling PA money.

"In the event a true and serious investigation isn’t carried out of what I have presented against the two PA officials, I would be forced to drop a bombshell that would keep Abu Mazen (the alias of Abbas) in Ramallah city and would hinder his participation in the upcoming Arab summit", threatened Shabana in an interview with Al-Jazeera net.

He also underlined that he would hold a press conference at the beginning of next month that would really embarrass Abbas if the Fat'h leader refused to act against the corrupt officials surrounding him.

Moreover, Shabana rejected espionage, treasons, and forgery charges tabled against him by the "corrupt PA officials", adding that what he had revealed was only a "drop in the ocean" of the evidence he possessed.

"I have played a strong role in fighting drugs and drug traffickers and spying in many Palestinian cities in the West Bank, and I still receive my salary till now and I have the payrolls to prove it", underlined Shabana, who agreed to be hanged if the evidence he exposed to the public wasn’t true.
