Israel Police Parade Cuffed Palestinian To Protesters

[Purveyor]

AFP - Israeli police paraded a cuffed Palestinian teenager to protesters in what a human rights group charged Saturday was abuse of a "human shield" but an Israeli spokesman said was a move to calm violence.

Defence for Children International-Palestine (DCI) posted a 76-second video clip on YouTube showing helmeted border policemen removing a young Palestinian it identified as "Muhammad R,17," from their armoured jeep and forcing him to stand beside them, cuffed hands raised above his head.

"We're outraged that Israeli soldiers continue to use Palestinian children as human shields with impunity," Ayed Abu Eqtaish of DCI-Palestine said in a statement.

"The teen in this case was deliberately exposed to danger after he had been taken into custody. Israeli authorities must conduct a prompt, transparent and impartial investigation and hold the perpetrators accountable."
