Permalink Israeli Court Decides Not To File Charges Against Soldier Who Killed Nonviolent Protestor in Bil’in

[Abu Rahma after being shot ] Despite a video clearly showing the death of Bassem Abu Rahma, who was shot in the chest by a gas bomb, an Israeli court decided Thursday that the killing that took place during a nonviolent protest against the Annexation Wall in Ni’lin near Ramallah, was not intentional. The soldier will not face any charges, and will be allowed to resume his military service as if nothing happened.

Bassem Abu Rahma, 31, was killed in April of last year. Israeli and International peace activists were also at the scene. The Israeli army claimed that Abu Rahma and other protestors were throwing stones at the soldiers, yet the video footage clearly shows him shouting at the soldiers asking them not to open fire. “rega, rega, catzin” the Hebrew words Abu Rahma told the soldiers… “officer… officer… wait.. listen..”. The Israeli court disregarded the facts and decided to close all investigations in the issue, and decided that the gas bomb fired by the army was not intentionally aimed at Abu Rahma.
