A 40-year-old Palestinian detainee from Gaza died at a Shin Bet security service facility last year after falling from a significant height while handcuffed, sources told Haaretz.
The incident occurred in January 2024, and the Palestinian man’s body was transferred without identifying information, leaving him unnamed. According to sources familiar with the investigation into the case, after the detainee’s death, the Shin Bet said that he fell while trying to escape the facility where he was being questioned.
The autopsy found signs that are consistent with a fall from a height, as well as signs indicating that the detainee had been handcuffed for a prolonged period.
The Justice Ministry told Haaretz that the probe into his death has been concluded with no suspicion of criminal activity, even though the deceased was in state custody at the time, which at the very least may indicate negligence by Shin Bet officers. Even though the man’s body was transferred without identification, his identity is known to the Shin Bet.
So they threw him off the roof because he withstood their interrogation.
