Border police officer who shot a Palestinian boy charged with
negligent manslaughter

Ahmed Musa, 10 years old, was shot in the head in July 2008, after a
demonstration against the construction of the separation barrier in
the West Bank village of Ni'lin. Today the prosecution indicted the
border police officer involved with negligent manslaughter


The boy, Ahmed Musa, of the village of Ni'ilin, west of Ramallah, was
killed after clashes erupted between Israeli security forces and
residents who protested against the construction of the separation
barrier on their lands. Witnesses to the incident told researchers of
human rights groups B’Tselem and Yesh Din that Musa was struck by a
bullet fired by the Israeli security forces. The doctors in the
Ramallah hospital where Musa was treated said he was killed from a
bullet injury to his head.

After B’Tselem and Yesh Din appealed to the authorities, the Judea and
Samaria police started an investigation. An IDF-Border Police
operational debriefing concluded that the boy's death was caused by
Israeli fire. In his interrogation, the police officer suspected of
shooting Musa admitted he fired some warning shots to scare off the
demonstrators. In February, the prosecution announced the suspect will
be indicted with negligent manslaughter, pending a hearing. In the
hearing, the defendant's claims were rejected, and today charges were
pressed against him.

From the year 2001 until today, human rights group B’Tselem has
handled 35 cases of Palestinians who were injured or killed from
bullets fired by police officers and border police officers. Only 16
of the cases were investigated, and of those, only two cases resulted
in indictments. One of the two is the case of Ahmed Musa.
