Mother's Shock After 'Israelis Beat Up Boy'

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 06 Juli 2014 | 00.57

The mother of a 15-year-old boy allegedly beaten up by Israeli security forces has told Sky News she had been in "a complete state of shock".

Tariq Abu Khadair is said to have been punched and kicked in a suspected attack by two police officers that was caught on amateur video.

His family claim he is a US citizen and the cousin of 16-year-old Arab teenager Mohammed Abu Khadir who was found dead earlier this week.

Palestinians say Mohammed was killed by Israeli extremists in a revenge attack following the alleged Hamas killing of three Israeli youths. The attack led to three days of violent protests.

Tests on Saturday showed he was burned alive, according Palestinian media reports.

The Israeli police are investigating the mobile phone footage of Tariq in east Jerusalem, which was released by a human rights group that described it as state sanctioned violence against children.

Tariq's mother, Sohair Abu Khadair, told Sky News that at least one officer did not want her to see her son at the police station.

She said: "I was in a complete state of shock. I couldn't believe it.

"There was a police officer in front of his room door that didn't want to let me in to see him until my husband had spoke to him.

"And then he finally said 'you can go in, just don't touch him, don't speak to him, don't get near him'. He was handcuffed. His ankles were handcuffed to the bed."

The family claim the teenager will be visited by American officials.

Micky Rosenfeld, national spokesperson for the Israeli police, told Sky News the video was "edited" and "biased".

Mr Rosenfeld said: "It does not represent the events that took place before the actual arrest."

He added: "Throughout the day in east Jerusalem there were hundreds of rioters, many of them masked, that hurled pipe bombs, Molotov cocktails, fireworks and stones at our police officers.

"And as a result of that, 15 police officers were injured during clashes by Palestinians.

"The suspect himself was one of six masked Palestinians that were arrested by undercover police officers. Three of them were armed at the time."
