Israeli Soldiers Blindfolded and Gagged Elderly Palestinian American Later Found Dead: Leaked Report
Share
A leaked summary of an Israeli investigation into the death of a Palestinian American in the West Bank after Israeli troops detained him this month suggested that no soldiers were likely to be prosecuted despite investigators confirming that the man was dragged from his car, blindfolded and handcuffed and then fell silent while being held at a construction site.
The leaks included findings that the soldiers never sought medical aid for the 78-year-old man, even though a military medic was at hand.
The incident unfolded after soldiers set up surprise checkpoints in Assad’s home village, stopping vehicles at random to find any weapons or Palestinians wanted for questioning.
