He is a Greek Orthodox Christian . Bandak was born into a Palestinian Christian family on January 13, 1979, in Bethlehem .He was born near the Church of the Nativity , said to mark the birthplace of Jesus of Nazareth , and his parents gave him the name Chris through its association with messiahship and since they believe Jesus to be of Palestinian descent as well as a savior of the Palestinians.He has an older brother named Khader.Chris' mother abandoned them when he was one years old.He was reportedly a leader of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades and the Tanzim , both armed wings of the Fatah movement.As a result of conviction for crimes related to this involvement he was imprisoned by Israel on February 6, 2003.At the time of his arrest, Bandak was described as the only Christian in the entire Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades.However, during a meeting with Bandak's family in 2009, Palestinian Authority official Issa Qaraqe hinted that there were other imprisoned Christian militants as well.The only other known Christian from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades was Daniel Saba George ("Abu Hamama") , a senior Tanzim operative killed by Israel in 2006.Bandak was released in 2011 as part of an exchange for the release of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit .A People Without a Country: Voices from Palestine - Page 28, Marian Saadeh, Harry Katz - 2011 A Season in Bethlehem: Unholy War in a Sacred Place, Joshua Hammer - 2004 "Israel warns of Iraq war 'earthquake' " ."Palestinian priests and mourners pray over the body of Daniel Abu Hamama..."
