RAMALLAH, February 8, 2012 (WAFA) – Israeli intelligence summoned Basel Tamimi, 13, from Nabil Saleh, a village north of Ramallah, to report to the Israeli military headquarters in Beit El settlement on Wednesday, according to Tamimi.
He said Israeli intelligence called his father on Tuesday and threatened to arrest the Palestinian minor from his house if he did not report to Beit El.
Tamimi said Israeli undercover forces arrested him for few hours on Thursday after he warned residents of the presence of undercover Israeli soldiers in the village.
The soldiers arrested Tamimi and took him to the nearby Halamish settlement, where Israeli soldiers beat him with a whip for half an hour, he said.
