West Bank ? Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Wednesday toured the devastated Jericho prison where Israel spirited away six prisoners, denouncing the raid as an “unforgivable crime.”

Acting Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said that the six Palestinians, including Ahmed Saadat, leader of the radical Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, will face trial. “They will be indicted according to Israeli law and they will be punished as they deserve,” he said.

Abbas suggested there was close coordination between foreign guards watching the prisoners and Israeli forces.

“They (the monitors) left at 9:20 a.m., and the Israelis came in at 9:30 a.m. How can we explain that?” Abbas said.
