The Shin Bet has agreed to compensate a Palestinian former militant who claimed that he had become permanently disabled due to torture he underwent during interrogation by agents of the security services.
The Shin Bet was ordered by the court in the wake of a lawsuit to compensate Jamal Mustafa al-Hindi, a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Al-Hindi said that torture during his arrest 15 years ago for his alleged role in murder two Israelis caused him 30 percent disability.
