The Commission of Detainees and Ex-Detainees' Affairs stated that the occupation authorities are practicing many violations and breaches in dealing with Palestinian women detainees during detention, interrogation and transport between courts and prisons, in a way that violates all international agreements and covenants and Human Rights principles.
The Commission pointed out that they are subjected to humiliation and insult during arrest. Some of them got arrested after being beaten and attacked, and also they got threatened of being killed, arresting family members and house demolishing.
The commission also confirmed that women detainees get inspected after detention in narrow rooms which lack lighting and ventilation. They got interrogated for long hours and deprived of sleeping.
Women detainees are also subjected to threats, cursing and screaming during interrogation which makes a sense of fear and terror for them. Moreover, they are exposed to the polygraph.
Women detainees suffer from bad and serious conditions during detention, where they are held in narrow underground cells.
The commission called on human rights organizations concerned with women affairs to move immediately and practice pressure against Israel to stop the flagrant violations against Palestinian women detainees.
