Witnesses and reports: Palestinian beaten by border police in Hebron

HEBRON, West Bank (AP) -- Israeli border police beat a Palestinian man
unconscious Tuesday in front of a Jewish settlement in the tense West Bank
town of Hebron, witnesses and news reports said.

However, police spokesman Ofer Sivan denied the claim, saying officers made
arrests after being attacked by a group of Palestinians.

Palestinian witnesses said the police hit Saber Abu Sneineh, 23, without
provocation after stopping him for questioning in front of the Avraham
Avinu settler enclave. Sneineh was treated for scrapes and bruises at a
nearby hospital and released.

A scuffle broke out between settlers, Palestinian journalists and
spectators who gathered at the scene. Four Palestinians and two settlers
were arrested.

A military official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said two border
policemen clashed with Sneineh after he refused to show them his driver's
license. The police forced Sneineh out of his car, and his brother arrived
and assaulted the officers, the official said.

Sneineh told The Associated Press that he gave his identification card to
one of the policemen, who said: ``I've seen you before -- in prison.''

Sneineh said he acknowledged he had been in prison, and the police began
kicking and beating him.
