Some of them have since been charged. Police  say the arrests were legal, and a matter of law and order.<\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;They are using military-style night raids to extract children as  young as 12,&#8221; said Sarit Michaeli of rights group B&#8217;tselem, which says  the raids are an inappropriate method to detain children.  They also argue the raids defy Israeli law, which demands children be  accompanied by guardians while being arrested.<\/p>\n<p>  In affidavits to B&#8217;tselem, six boys aged between 12 and 14 years old  described arrest raids involving around a dozen heavily armed military  police surrounding their homes, handcuffing them and  leading them to cells where they were slapped, kicked and told by  interrogators to confess if they wanted to go home.<\/p>\n<p>  Some 40 boys have been taken into custody over the past year, and  around half were 14 or younger, B&#8217;tselem said.<\/p>\n<p>  One of the boys, Ahmad Saim, 12, was arrested at around 3 a.m. on Jan. 10.<\/p>\n<p>  &#8220;I was made to kneel and face the wall and every time I moved a man  &#8230; slapped me across the neck,&#8221; said Saim in an affidavit. Saim said an interrogator pushed him into the wall, causing a nose  bleed.<\/p>\n<p>  Police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld said the police acted within the  law. &#8220;We will continue to operate despite the age of the suspects, once  we have information on crimes,&#8221; Rosenfeld said.<\/p>\n<p>  In the West Bank, where Israeli military law applies, a 13-year-old  boy was held for nine days in detention with adults because his  impoverished father could not afford to pay $500 bail, the  Haaretz daily reported. <!-- sphereit end--><br style=\"clear:both;\" \/>  <\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/pixy.gif?x-id=7ddfd17b-aa30-81d4-9e3d-f189d18b938b\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday 11 march 2010 4 11 \/03 \/2010 16:24 Israeli Police Improperly Arresting Palestinian Kids Israeli Rights Group Says Police Improperly Arrested Palestinian Boys As Young As 12 Font size Print E-mail Share (AP)&nbsp; JERUSALEM (AP) &#8211; Israeli police are improperly arresting Palestinian boys in nighttime raids in Jerusalem that involve assault rifle wielding security&hellip; <br \/> <a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/2010\/03\/11\/israeli-police-improperly-arresting-palestinian-kids\/\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=891"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/891\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=891"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=891"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/venusimportexport.com\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
