3 female minors tortured by Israel

PIC reported:

Three female Palestinian minors held in the Israeli HaSharon jail launched cries for help over the harsh torture they have been subjected to during the detention and investigation phases.

A lawyer from the Palestinian Prisoners` Society (PPS) who popped in the HaSharon jail quoted 14-year-old Rama Jaabis and 16-year-old Malak Salman, both from Occupied Jerusalem, as stating that the occupation foorces forced them to lie on the floor before they were handcuffed, insulted, and aggressively beaten.

The detainees were also prevented from being accompanied by their parents during the investigation.

16-year-old Sajida Hassan, from Nablus, was also subjected to the same mistreatment. PPS said by law the child should be questioned in the presence of a parent or legal counsel in order to prevent forced confessions by the investigators.

The three minors have been held in Israeli detention since February.
