2 Israeli Arab sisters arrested for connection to terror attack By Uri Ash, Ha'aretz Correspondent Two sisters from the Israeli Arab town of Sakhnin in the Galilee have been arrested on suspicion of having had contact with a member of the Tanzim militia, which is associated with Yasser Arafat's Fatah party, and of planning to help a young Palestinian woman carry out a suicide attack in the north of Israel. The two, whose names were released for publication Sunday - as was the news of their detention - are Latifa and Bohaisa Sa'adi, aged 20 and 25. Both were arrested about a month ago. The District Court in Acre extended the remand of the two sisters by four days Sunday. The two could face charges of assisting an enemy in a time of war, contact with a foreign agent, and supporting a terror organization. According to security sources, the two women confessed to most of the charges against them during their interrogation by the Shin Bet security service and police. They were not permitted to see legal counsel for six days. Latifa Sa'adi is suspected of having made contact with a Tanzim activist from Hebron - named Muataz - via the Internet. The man was arrested and apparently told interrogators of his connection with the two women. Muataz was responsible for randomly contacting the two women and according to the sisters' attorney, the contact began as personal in nature, with talk of arranging a meeting and a wedding. The contact ended at one point, but was renewed during the IDF's Operation Defensive Shield in the West Bank.
