Security Services arrested many students during the exam period as a means of
exercising pressure. The General Intelligence Service and the Preventive Security
Service arrested students during the exam period, causing great harm to these
students as a result of the loss of multiple classes and a delay in their graduation.
ICHR notes that the Public Prosecution did not play its mandated role,
exemplified in overseeing of the detention centers affiliated with the Security
Services. This was left to the Military Prosecution, in clear violation of the law and
human rights, despite the Public Prosecution’s legal mandate to ensure that
there were no detainees being held illegally. In order to activate the role of Civil
Prosecution in the process of supervision and inspection of detention centers,
ICHR offered a number of notifications to the Attorney General in order to move
and present the issue. However, ICHR did not receive any response to these
notifications until the end of the year. It should also be noted that the continued
detention of civilians in illegal detention places is a violation of the law and
human rights. Detention centers affiliated with the Security Services have now
turned into permanent detention centers.

Proceedings in the Gaza Strip
During 2010, ICHR received (634) complaints against the Security Services of the
Government in the Gaza Strip, including (617) violations clearly abusing the
criminal justice system, and lacking fair legal action, which is a tool to measure
the availability of personal freedom in the legal system in accordance with human
rights standards highlighted by international human rights. This year has seen a
decline, compared with 2009, as the number of violations recorded by ICHR then
was about (953) violations.

focused on arbitrary detention, including 1) detention of citizens on political
grounds, 2) searches without warrants issued by the Public Prosecution, 3)
presenting civilians before military courts without a warrant from a competent
authority, or without indictment or with invalid or non‐serious charges, 4) non‐
presentation of detainees before judicial authorities within the time specified by
law, and 5)prolonged detention without trial.
