Al-Omar stated that the Israeli
Jerusalem District Court ruled to freeze JDECO’s bank accounts to collect an
accumulated debt of NIS 380 million and that it gave JDECO 30 days as of May 7
to pay off its debts.
Israel Electric Company (IEC) had
filed a suit at the Jerusalem District Court against JDECO demanding a direct
access to the JDECO’s bank accounts to collect an unpaid accumulated debt of
NIS 530 million in debt.
Commenting on Israeli media reports
that IEC had decided to restrict the power supply to Palestinians in East
Jerusalem, Al-Omari stated that his company was not informed about such a
decision.
If such a decision is really taken,
then it would, according to Al-Omari, constitute a part of reprisals Israeli
has been carrying out against the Palestinians in the aftermath of the
deadlocked peace process.
Al-Omari called upon all competent
authorities to take immediate action in order to stop such Israeli measures
that, which if implemented, would undermine JDECO.
He also called upon all Palestinians
consumers to pay off their debts in order to enable the company to meet its
financial obligations.
