Palestinian Boy Murdered as "Collaborator" for Chatting with Israeli Border Guard
[Jerusalem Post] Khaled Abu Toameh - Raed Sawalha, 15, from the village of Hijjah near Kalkilya in the West Bank, was brutally tortured before being hanged. His father, Wael, had locked him inside a warehouse after villagers claimed they had seen the boy "chatting" with an Israeli Border Police soldier. The father told police that he only sought to "discipline" his son and did not know that other members of the family, including his own brother, would assault him and kill him on suspicion of "collaboration" with Israel. The uncle, who confessed to the murder, told police investigators that he "lost his temper" when some boys in the village told him that his nephew had waved to a Border Police soldier as he drove by.
