The Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs Committee documented the testimony of the young prisoner, Ali Al-Barghouti, 25, from Kobar village, in the middle of the West Bank, in which he narrates the details of his cruel and barbaric arrest by the Israeli army and the moments of his abuse.

In a statement reached Safa on Monday, the committee quoted the full testimony of Baghuti, indicating that he was arrested on January 21, 2021 after a group of the so-called Duvdevan unit or the “Mista'arvim” raided his house.

The Mista'arvim units started calling him by loudspeakers and after he left the house, they forced him to take off his clothes and walk towards them in a reverse manner, and then they took him to his house yard and began interrogating him and assaulting him with beating and punches all over his body, the committee reported.

They also deliberately strangled him more than once and frightened him with police dogs and they assaulted him for more than an hour while he was handcuffed and as a result, he suffered several bruises, that are still in his body until now.

After the arrival of a unit of the Israeli army, the Duvdevan unit forces withdrew from the prisoner's house and handed him over to the army. Before their withdrawal, one of soldiers deliberately dismantled the plastic cleats on the prisoner's hand with a piece of glass that was on the ground and wound his wrist.

Later on, the prisoner was thrown into the military jeep and taken to the Beit El camp and as long as he was in the jeep, the soldiers never stopped hitting and kicking him all over his body, after which he was transferred to Ofer detention center for interrogation and then transferred to Section 14 in the detention.

The majority of the Palestinians arrested by the Israeli authorities are subjected to physical torture and degrading treatment during their arrest and interrogation operations. Besides, Israel continues to practice torture as a tool to avenge the prisoners, strip their humanity, and to pressure them to extract confessions by force, striking against all international conventions and principles of the human rights that guarantee their rights as prisoners and detainees.
