description: "Muhammad Hassan Abu Tir is a Palestinian politician, a member of Hamas and a representative on the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) for his East Jerusalem constituency. He was elected to the position in the Palestinian legislative elections that were held on 25 January 2006. Abu Tir is known for his bright orange henna-dyed beard which separates him from most other politicians and members of his community. He tended to keep a low media profile before he was placed in Israeli prison for four years: On 29 June 2006, Abu Tir was arrested by Israeli military authorities in the 2006 Gaza–Israel conflict. He was held until June 2010, after which Israel ordered him to leave the country because he refused to resign from the Hamas legislature. In June 2010, he was rearrested after he failed to leave East Jerusalem."
