Summary of the Findings and Conclusions of Adalah’s ‘The Accused’ Report

Adalah’s report, entitled “The Accused,” addresses the shortcomings and failures of the law enforcement authorities – first and foremost PID??(Police Investigation Department)??- since October 2000 in all related to the investigation into the incidents involving the killing of Israeli citizens. The report reveals PID’s method of work, which is completely contrary to law as regards fulfilling the directives of the Or Commission to continue investigating the cases of killing. It also demonstrates how PID concealed essential facts from the public and issued a falsified report in which it claimed that “it investigated the fatal events.” In addition, the report illuminates the masked and undeclared “collaboration” between PID investigators and some of the police officers under investigation concerning their criminal responsibility.
