investigation room, and there the investigator said to me “there are about 70
stories in the region where you live. We want you to take 30 or 40 of them.” I
was beaten during the investigation. Then I was taken to the refrigerator again,
and was exposed to “Shabah” (a form of torture in which the person is being
forced to hold stress positions for prolonged periods) for three days. Then the
interrogator came and said “I want you to call your wife and your father and tell
them about your will and your debts, because we will execute you.” He brought
me a white paper and told me to write down my credit and he left. Later, I
collapsed as a result of the pressure. And then the investigator came and I told
him “I will sign for you all what you want and tell you the stories you want.” He
said to me “no I want you to write the stories and sign.” I implemented this
directly. Later, the investigator came and asked me about two martyrs from
Rafah and I said to him “God, even if heaven is applied on earth I would not
admit to killing or the bombing of houses.” Nearly 15 days after the confession,
one of the officers came, accompanied by an officer from Rafah whom I was
able to identify. They assaulted me and beat me with 100 sticks on my feet and
50 on my hands and kicked my face with their feet. The next day, the doctor
came and found my face swollen, and I had tumors or swellings in the feet and
hands, and he promised me they would not beat me. Then they took me to
Ansar building, and then to the Military Prosecutor. I am still detained in Gaza
Central Prison “Battalion”. During the investigation, I admitted issues and
stories I have not heard of before in order to stop the beating and torture. For
this reason, I file a complaint to the Independent Commission (ICHR) against the
Internal Security Service for arresting me, beating me, torturing me, and
detaining me in an unknown location, and for my continued detention for
almost 18 days without being brought before the prosecution, and for being
forced to write my confession under torture and with my own handwriting.
