(IsraelNN.com) A Border policeman who was filmed beating an Amona protestor with a rod faces only a disciplinary trial without criminal charges, it was revealed Thursday. The human rights group in Judea and Samaria plans to appeal the decision and demand that Ali Sa'id be charged with criminal violations in the filmed beating of a 17-year-old youth at Amona earlier this year.



The injured boy said he was not involved in any violence prior to the beating by the policeman. His lawyer added that a claim will be made for compensation.
