A female Palestinian security prisoner in Ashkelons Shikma Prison tore up pages from a copy of the Quran and threw them toward the toilet during a routine search Sunday, the Israel Prison Service said.
The 22-year-old detainee from a village near Hebron is an Islamic Jihad member who was arrested three months ago in suspicion of hostile terror activity.
She resisted a routine search by a female guard, and then took out torn Quran pages from her skirt and hurled them toward the toilet.
The guard handed the torn Quran pages to the prisons director, and Prison Service officials said she showed heightened sensitivity to the holy Islamic book.
Security prisoners are permitted to keep Qurans, and the Prison Service provides them with the books, but tearing pages out of the book and throwing them in the bathroom is blasphemy and hinders the prisoners right to conduct religious rites, a Prison Service official said.
The Palestinian prisoner was eventually transferred to the Hasharon Prison as planned.
A month ago Palestinian security prisoners detained in the Megiddo Prison claimed prison guards tore up pages from Quran copies during searches of their cells.

Especially, seeing them being fatted up on good food and having to practically wipe their backside for them.
Funny, how little details like that are left out when the media is talking about how much we should respect their practices.
They are allowed to touch it, just not when they are 'unclean' (if ya know what I mean).
I know what you mean; I'm just quoting an 'abu' that told me about the law.
There, I feel much better now.
Oh yeah. Sorry to be so unseeeeensative, but, PS:
/sarcasm
I don't blame her. Any woman must be crazy to want to believe the words of a pedophile like Mohammed. That's like worshipping the words of Charles Manson. Egads!
Not to mention setting them up in the Ramadan Inn-Gitmo.
A-F'n-Men, Brother!
I said I saw a few ladies who were not fasting and he told me that they were um... menstuating.
So each time you see a Muslim lady who is not fasting, you can visualize the reason why. ewwww...
That is just too, too weird to even think about.
Not just menstrating. Pregnant and nursing exempts women too.
But men are allowed to hold it when they are beheading an innocent civilian. Such a civilized culture.
I wonder if the US military is GITMO has in their "Koran Handling Proceedures" that menstruating servicewoman are not allowed to touch the Koran?
"What was a woman doing with the Quran? Women aren't allowed to touch the Quran."
I'm pretty sure they are, actually.
If they don't I'll be very surprised. I guess we're going to have to continue kissing Muslim backsides until the end of time.
conclusions --these arabs are a bunch of spoiled little childred throwing tantrums(but theirs are deadly) only understand punishment
Ah no. It is forbidden to touch or carry the Qur'an while one is in a state of impurity. Some scholars won't let women touch the Quran at all because they could be unclean. Some teach that women have to have the Quran interpreted to them.
The extremist intrepretations are followed in places like Palestine.
I haven't figured out why the MSM thinks the rest of us give a hoot about terrorists imprisoned at Gitmo. The least of my concerns is "desecrated" korans.
