On January 8, he was sentenced to administrative detention until May 8. His imprisonment can be extended indefinitely. No time limit's imposed. He and others can rot forever uncharged in gross violation of international law. He's willing to die opposing this abuse.

On February 7, Randa saw him for 15 minutes. He was too weak to greet her. His shrunken, ulcerated body resembled a lifeless shell. She was shocked, and their daughters were scared. He said prison authorities prevented him from bathing, grooming, or changing his clothes since arrest.

Angry about his shocking treatment, Randa said:

"Israel has treated my husband without any humanity or compassion for his deteriorating health. It's obviously very bad, yet they're not only preventing him from receiving any treatment, but also attacking his basic dignity as a human being."

In a letter from prison hospital, Adnan expected to die, saying:

"The only thing I can do is offer my soul to God as I believe righteousness and justice will eventually triumph over tyranny and oppression."

"I hereby assert that I am confronting the occupiers not for my own sake as an individual, but for the sake of thousands of prisoners who are being deprived of their simplest human rights while the world and international community look on" dismissively.

After Tirosh's ruling, Randa clung to hope saying, "Israel denied Khader any fairness or decency. But maybe the rest of humanity will show more mercy." So far, it's letting Israel torture him to death.

On February 13, prison authorities threatened to painfully shackle his four limbs to his bed without explanation.
