Objet�:	HEBRON:  Palestinian Beaten at the Barber Shop

12 October, 1997
PALESTINIAN BEATEN AT THE BARBER SHOP
by Sara Reschly

On Friday, October 10, Mohammed Al-Nazer of Hebron was punched,
kicked, and then arrested by Israeli soldiers.  CPT members Janet
Shoemaker and Sara Reschly visited with Al-Nazer in his home the day
following his release.   The young 18 yr. old had a bandage on his
left arm and a large lump on the back of his head.

Al-Nazer stated that he was getting his hair cut when soldiers entered
the barber shop and demanded to see his identity card.  After he
showed them his card, the soldiers told him to face the wall.  They
searched his body and found nothing.  "They told me to face the wall
again and that they were going to hand cuff me.  I said, `Why? I
didn't do anything.'  They began hitting me and I pushed them back.
They pushed me into a corner and three soldiers beat me harshly.
People [Palestinians] came to surround me and the soldiers put live
bullets in their guns and pointed them at their chests," said
Al-Nazer.

Al-Nazer said he was then taken to the police station and beaten again
by the same soldiers.  He was left hand-cuffed for five hours,
interrogated, and then forced to sign a document written in Hebrew
before he was released.  Al-Nazer stated he does not speak or read
Hebrew and there was no Arabic translation provided for the document.

When asked if he or his family had any message to give to Americans,
his mother-- Sabah Al-Nazer, replied, "We live under bad conditions:
we suffer daily harassment by Israeli soldiers, settlers and police.
Daily our lives are like hell.  All the time the soldiers protect the
settlers and they attack us."
