7 Barbaric Israeli Race Soldiers Charged for Severely Beating a Palestinian Man and Then Branding His Face with the Star of David. Will the Super Fair IsrAlien Courts Provide Justice?
/From [HERE] The Department for Internal Police Investigations says that it has notified 7 police officers that they will be charged in a 2023 incident of alleged police brutality against an East Jerusalem resident.
According to a statement from DIPI, the seven cops are slated to be indicted on varying charges of abuse of a helpless person; aggravated assault; obstruction of investigative proceedings; and abuse of official power.
In the August 2023 incident, East Jerusalem Palestinian Arwah Sheikh Ali says that police officers beat him and branded his face with a Star of David while arresting him for suspected drug trafficking. The officers were also accused of deleting footage of the arrest.
Vadim Shub, head of the Jerusalem public defender’s office, which is representing Mr. Sheikh Ali, said in an interview on Sunday, “The mark on his face is the tip of the iceberg,” adding, “We want to raise the issue of police violence.”
Mr. Shub said the mark was still evident four days after Mr. Sheikh Ali’s arrest.
“When his lawyer visited him, he saw that he was heavily beaten, and he saw a sign that looks like a Star of David,” Mr. Shub said.
Mr. Shub said that 16 officers had been present during Mr. Sheikh Ali’s arrest but that there was no body-camera footage. The police did not answer questions about the lack of recordings. [MORE]
