Israeli court acquits Israeli soldier of murdering Palestinian

Thursday 12-January-2012

NAZARETH (PIC)– The human rights group B’Tselem said an Israeli court acquitted an Israeli officer of killing in cold blood a Palestinian citizen called Firas Qasqas four years ago.

This court decision came four years after a senior Israeli officer killed Qasqas who was hundreds of meters away and unarmed and constituted no threat to anyone.

This court exoneration was issued after B’Tselem filed a petition with the higher court last February demanding the military prosecutor to take action against the officer.
