GSS detained minors have not seen attorney

Sunday, December 30, 2018, 12:53 A short time ago GSS and Yasam (Special) forces raided a yeshiva in the Shomron. The forces are searching the site and have detained a minor, who is not permitted to meet with an attorney. The minor’s status is unknown.
Honenu Attorney Adi Keidar, who is representing the minor: “It appears that the GSS and the Attorney General’s office have internalized neither the conclusions reached after recent security-related interrogations nor the criticism directed at them, and are attempting only by unacceptable and violent means to extract confessions from youths. Also this time a minor was detained, and has been prevented from meeting with an attorney. Shortly we will turn to the court in order to demand to see the minor and follow his condition.”

The three minors will remain in remand overnight and have not met with an attorney.

Tomorrow (Monday) at 11:00 the minors are expected to be brought to the Rishon LeTzion Magistrates Court for a deliberation on a possible extension of their remand.
