Description | Palestinian presidential candidate Mustafa Barghouti was detained Friday outside Jerusalem's Old City as he tried to pray at the Al Aqsa mosque compound.
Mustafa Barghouti, who is running a distant second in opinion polls, was forced by three Israeli plainclothes officers into a police car outside the Lion's Gate entrance to the walled Old City, witnesses said.
Barghouti flashed a "V" sign with his fingers before he entered the car.
It was the second time Barghouti was detained by Jerusalem police during the campaign. |
