The advocate of the Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees' Affairs, Mo'taz Shqiarat, cited on Tuesday the story of the minor detainee Mohammad Abdullah Hammad,16, from Qalandia camp, in which he was exposed to humiliation and extensive beating during his arrest in 16/1/2019 from his house.
Hammad who still detained at Ofer prison stated that "a number of Israeli soldiers besieged my house in the camp, where many soldiers broke into the house accompanied by horrific dogs. The two dogs attacked me, while the soldiers were holding my family and threatening them with weapons".
He added: "then they handcuffed me, blindfolded my eyes and took me to a settlement called "Kochav Ya'akov". At that time, the soldiers kept beating, cursing and deliberately forcing me to fall down".
"After arriving to the settlement, they transferred me by a military vehicle to Atarot Interrogation Cetner and they forced me to confess guilt with the charge of throwing stones on soldiers at Qalandia military checkpoint, then they transferred me to Ofer prison".
The Commission pointed out that the Israeli occupation with all its authorities are deliberately causing harm, humiliation and abuse against Palestinian detainees, especially children during detention, interrogation and trials.
This is a clear and systematic plan to destroy the Palestinian childhood and its future, where 99% of those who got arrested are exposed to one or more kind of torture, abuse, and humiliation.
