Accountability in the Sadiq Tehman Case

I mentioned the Sadiq Tehman case where, you know, this is an emblematic case which shows

the total lack of accountability.

I mean, like, the evidence was solid.

The commission of inquiry made it very clear that there was solid evidence of sexual violence.

The Palestinian detainee suffered life-threatening injuries.

I will not go into the detail because you all have the details.

Ten soldiers were initially arrested for the rape of this Palestinian.

Five were immediately released within days.

The five others were put on house arrest.

And after they were put on house arrest, there were members of the Knesset who actually demonstrated

against their arrest.

I know that they even occupied the Sadiq Tehman camp, and they threatened those who were investigating

the case.

There were also strong statements made by the Minister of National Security on the arrest

of those so-called heroes.

And then the military advocate general just dropped this charge.

So the case was initially investigated as sexual violence.

The indictment did not contain charges of sexual violence.

It was on physical assault.

And even those charges were dropped.

So where is accountability?
