Tens of rabbis affiliated with religious Zionism called for an investigative team to be established to probe the Shin Bet’s (ISA, Israel Security Agency) conduct, in light of claims that the Shin Bet is torturing the youths suspected of committing the Duma massacre.
“In light of evidence of severe acts committed by Shin Bet investigators against the detained youths, we demand that the interrogation of the youths be ended at once and that an investigative team be established to probe the Shin Bet’s conduct in the case. If the investigators did commit wrongdoings, they should be prosecuted,” the rabbis wrote on a petition organized by the Derech Chaim movement.
