Annual Violations Report<br />
into interrogation, then placed with two other people in a room facing<br />
the wall for three hours. Around five, I was led into court where my<br />
detention was extended to Thursday June 18 th without the presence<br />
of any member of my family. I was then taken into the holding rooms<br />
in the interrogation center where I was seen by a doctor and stripsearched.<br />
I slept through the night out of exhaustion, and had some<br />
food because I didn’t eat or drink anything since the moment of my<br />
arrest. The following day, Tuesday June 16 th , a police officer came in<br />
and told me to get ready for court.<br />
The Waiting Room<br />
A police officer led me into a waiting room in Al-Maskobiya. I was<br />
left there alone for almost two hours, after which two Israelis walked<br />
into the room and lingered for ten minutes. When I walked towards<br />
the door to call the police officer, the two Israelis attacked me from<br />
behind and violently struck me on my head and body. I was writhing<br />
in pain after they threw me on the floor and continued to beat me<br />
with all their might. At the beginning, the beating concentrated on my<br />
face; my mouth and nose started to bleed because of the repeated<br />
punches. During the attack, one of them – I don’t remember which<br />
one because I was beginning to lose consciousness at the time- hit<br />
me on the back of my head with a sharp razor. I felt excruciating<br />
pain as the blood started pouring out of my head; I completely lost<br />
consciousness after that. I’m not sure for how long I was unconscious<br />
before I woke up in a clinic-like room, surrounded by a group of doctors.<br />
I started to regain consciousness as I continued to bleed from various<br />
wounds on my body. After five minutes, with blood dribbling from my<br />
mouth, I was taken into a room where someone took care of me and<br />
provided me with food and water. The following day, I was led into<br />
interrogation despite my constant dizziness. The interrogation lasted<br />
for ten minutes during which I was questioned about the attack. I was<br />
later interrogated for an hour with the interrogator trying to force a<br />
confession out of me; I refused to confess to anything. I went to court<br />
on Thursday, and my hearing was postponed to Sunday June 21 st .<br />
I was in agonizing pain the whole time, and constantly demanded<br />
to be seen by a doctor; my requests were denied every time. I was<br />
released after the court hearing on Sunday June 21 st , 2015 under the<br />
condition of leaving Issawiya and staying under house arrest in my<br />
sister’s house in Sur Baher neighborhood.<br />
