Abie Nathan
Comes To Court

Tel Aviv (JTA) — Peace ac-
tivist Abie Nathan, serving
an 18-month prison sentence
for meeting with Yassir
Arafat and other leaders of
the Palestine Liberation
Organization in June, was
brought in handcuffs from
Ma'asiyahu Prison to Tel
Aviv Magistrates Court for a
resumption of his trial for
earlier meetings he held
with the PLO leader.
The usually ebullient Mr.
Nathan seemed downcast as
he heard the court state it
must decide whether, in
light of his latest violation,
it should activate a suspend-
ed sentence he received for
an alleged meeting with Mr.
Arafat in 1989.
Mr. Nathan freely confess-
ed to meeting Arafat in
Tunis six months ago, in
violation of the Israeli law
against consorting with the
enemy.
But he insists the earlier
encounter was not illegal be-
1 cause it occurred at a news
conference attended by the
general news media. He has
appealed that conviction to
the High Court of Justice.
The Magistrates Court
will hold its next hearing on
the suspended sentence on
Jan. 10, by which time the
High Court of Justice is ex-
pected to have ruled on Mr.
Nathan's appeal.
Mr. Nathan's predicament
has generated sympathy in
some circles. Not only was
he handcuffed like a com-
mon criminal but, it could be
argued, he is serving time
for doing nothing worse than
Prime Minister Yitzhak
Shamir and his aides have
done by attending the Mid-
dle East peace conference in
Madrid.
The Israeli leader faced a
Palestinian delegation that
acknowledged Mr. Arafat as
its leader, admitted loyalty
to the PLO and made no
bones about getting its
orders from Tunis.
Mr. Nathan's supporters,
who protested that someone
accused of a non-violent
crime should not be hand-
cuffed, were told it was simp-
ly police procedure.
Mr. Nathan, for his part,
indicated he will not appeal
for clemency to President
Chaim Herzog. To do so, he
says, would be to admit that
talking to the enemy for the
sake of peace is a criminal
offense.

The burden of proof is on the
claimant. Mishna: Baba
