Ni’lin shooting

7 Aug. ‘08: Palestinian victim of shooting and Israeli human rights organizations demand suspension of legal proceedings in Ni’lin affair


Following the indictments filed this morning (7 August) in the Ni’lin shooting affair, the Palestinian victim and four Israeli human rights organizations demanded that the military Judge Advocate General suspend legal proceedings against both the lieutenant colonel involved and the soldier who fired the shot. The delay will enable the organizations to examine and consider challenging the decision to charge the two with the relatively light offense of “inappropriate conduct”.
