Palestynski tlum zlinczowal we wtorek w sadzie w
Dzenin na Zachodnim Brzegu trzech oskarzonych. To
kolejny, krwawy dowód na to, ze wladza Autonomii
Palestynskiej i Arafata jest coraz bardziej iluzoryczna

Rozprawa odbywala sie przed palestynskim trybunalem
bezpieczenstwa strzezonym przez dziesiatki
umundurowanych policjantów. Sadzono trzech
mezczyzn, którzy kilka dni wczesniej zabili oficera
palestynskich sluzb bezpieczenstwa Osame Kmejla.
Proces przyciagnal tlum krewniaków Kmejla, którzy w
gniewie oczekiwali na wyrok. Gdy poszla plotka, ze
oskarzeni dostali po 15 lat wiezienia, kilkaset osób
ruszylo do szturmu.

Jak twierdza swiadkowie wsród napastników byli
uzbrojeni mezczyzni w mundurach palestynskiej policji.
Wyprowadzili trzech oskarzonych z sali sadowej do
lazienki, udajac, ze chca ich ukryc przed tlumem. Tam
brutalnie pobili oskarzonych kolbami karabinów i
podziurawili kulami. Ciala wywlekli na ulice, gdzie
przywitaly ich wiwaty i strzaly z radosci. Chwile
wczesniej sad skazal dwie z ofiar linczu na kare smierci,
a trzecia na 15 lat wiezienia.

Wtorkowy samosad jest kolejnym epizodem krwawej
historii rodu Kmejla, do którego nalezeli takze trzej
zlinczowani. Podczas pierwszej intifady w latach 1988-90
szesc osób z rodu, podejrzewanych o wspólprace z
Izraelem, zginelo z rak zamachowców dowodzonych
przez Osame Kmejla. Jak zeznali wczoraj oskarzeni
smierc Osamy byla zemsta za ich zabójstwa. Mówili, ze
zdecydowali sie na zemste dopiero teraz, gdy
palestynskie sluzby bezpieczenstwa sa coraz slabsze.
Dlatego liczyli, ze morderstwo ujdzie im plazem.

Rozprawy przed trybunalami bezpieczenstwa, których
dzialanie od lat krytykuja palestynscy obroncy praw
czlowieka, sa zazwyczaj bardzo krótkie. Od poczatku
palestynskiej rewolty przed trybunaly trafilo ponad 150
Palestynczyków oskarzonych o wspólprace z izraelskimi
sluzbami bezpieczenstwa. 13 zostalo skazanych na smierc
a dwa wyroki wykonano, co wywolalo oburzenie
miedzynarodowej opinii publicznej.

Choc wendeta nie jest czyms wyjatkowym w
spoleczenstwie palestynskim, atak w bialy dzien na
instytucje Autonomii Palestynskiej swiadczy o oslabieniu
wladzy Jasera Arafata podkopanej 16 miesiacami
palestynskiej rewolty. Grupy zbrojne jawnie lamia jego
rozkaz zawieszenia ognia z Izraelem. Rozprawa
odbywala sie izbie handlowej w Dzenin, gdyz wszystkie
budynki nalezace do policji i sluzb bezpieczenstwa
zostaly zniszczone w izraelskich atakach odwetowych.

- Z braku lokali policjanci sypiaja w korytarzach
biurowców. Jak wlóczedzy - opowiada palestynski
socjolog z uniwersytetu w Bir Zeit. Kilka dni temu w
Ramallah, nie czekajac na policje, ludzie zdemolowali i
podpalili dom nalezacy do zabójcy ich bliskiego. - Od
powstania Autonomii nie udalo sie stworzyc panstwa
prawa. Ludzie nie maja zaufania. Biora sprawiedliwosc w
swoje rece. To jeszcze nie chaos, ale jestesmy blisko -
mówi socjolog.

[WK. Pan psycholog widocznie nie czytal raportow
Amnesty International. Zniszczone administracyjne
budynki nie maja bowiem nic z tym wspolnego. O to

przed izraelskimi bombardowaniami ]


Unlawful killings, including possible extrajudicial executions,
continued to be reported. Muhammad `Anqawi, who had previously been
detained in 1996 on suspicion of "collaborating" with Israel, was found
dead in April half an hour after telling a friend he was going to the
mukhabarat. His body had nine bullet holes in it and his car was outside
the mukhabarat office. No investigation was held into his death.

Four appellants, including the Legislative Council's human rights
committee, brought a petition for habeas corpus before the Palestinian
High Court of Justice on behalf of Shafiq Muhammad Hassan `Abd
al-Wahhab, who "disappeared" after his arrest by the istikhbarat in July
1997 (see Amnesty International Report 1998). The Court had not ruled on
the case by the end of the year.

There were frequent reports of torture and ill-treatment at the hands of
the security services, especially the PSS, the Intelligence
(mukhabarat), and the istikhbarat. For instance, most of the 35 Hamas
activists arrested in Ramallah after the death of Hamas leader Muhi
al-Din al-Sherif in March said they were tortured by the PSS or by the
mukhabarat. `Imad `Awadallah, who wasarrested in April and taken to
Jericho, described being tortured for more than 30 days by PSS officers
to make him confess to the killing of Muhi al-Din al-Sherif. He said he
was beaten while hooded and forced to stand or to hang from a window for
prolonged periods. He was then held in solitary confinement by the
mukhabarat for 34 days before being handed back to the PSS who held him
for a further 30 days, forcing him to remain in painful positions while
standing or suspended for 20 hours a day. In July he went on hunger
strike for 16 days and was finally allowed to see his family after 100
days' incommunicado detention. In August he escaped. His family in
Ramallah was placed under house arrest for 12 days. Demonstrators
opposed to the treatment of his family, including members of the
Legislative Council, were beaten by police officers. In September `Imad
`Awadallah and his brother, `Adel, a leader of the military wing of
Hamas, were killed by Israeli security forces in apparent extrajudicial
executions (see Israel and the Occupied Territories entry).

Three people died in custody in circumstances where torture or
ill-treatment appeared to have caused or hastened their deaths. In
August Walid Mahmud Qawasmeh died in Jericho apparently as a result of
torture. He had been arrested in Hebron in July and was held
incommunicado for 12 days. His family stated that when they saw him, in
the presence of guards, he had bruises on his head and neck. He died
three days later. Palestinian security officials said that Walid
Qawasmeh died of heat stroke, but the autopsy showed that death occurred
as a result of a fractured skull followed by a brain haemorrhage. In
November a military court sentenced two members of the security services
to six months' imprisonment and one other in absentia to seven years'
imprisonment after a summary trial for causing the death by negligence.

The findings of investigations into human rights abuses were not made
public and court decisions were often ignored. More than 50 petitions
for the release of those detained without charge or trial were submitted
to the Palestinian High Court. Shaykh Mahmud Muslah, a Hamas activist
arrested in September 1997 whose release had been ordered by the High
Court in November 1997, remained in detention (see Amnesty International
Report 1998). In March, nine men from al-Khader village were acquitted
by the Ramallah District Court and released. They had been arrested in
1996 and had confessed to murders after they were tortured by the
istikhbarat. In October, two members of the security services were
charged in connection with the kidnapping and beating of the General
Secretary of the Palestinian Popular Force in June.



Four people were sentenced to death and two were executed, the first
executions under the PA. Ra`ed, Muhammad and Fares Abu Sultan, three
members of the istikhbarat, were brought to trial before a military
court in Gaza in August on charges of killing two members of another
family during an armed confrontation. The trial, which was unannounced,
was held the day after the murders. A journalist who tried to enter the
court was reportedly beaten by police. The death sentence was handed
down the next day and the following day, three days after the murder,
Ra`edand Muhammad Abu Sultan were
