The father of Marah Bakir, who was released on Friday, said Israel threatened to raid their family home if they openly celebrated her release.
"Marah is finally home. We just received her at the Maskobya interrogation centre," said Jawdat Bakeer, father of Marah.
"Police told us we can't celebrate in any way. They threatened to raid our home and destroy everything. They said they would come and arrest me."
Israel sent Bakir to prison at the age of 15 for the attempted murder of a policeman - a charge Bakir and the family denies.
