A Netanya district court judge has awarded 250,000 shekels ($61,500) to a victim of police brutality at the demolition of houses in Amona last year. The award was given by default after the state prosecutor did not present a defense.
Daniel Maman, who was expelled almost two years from the Gush Katif community of Netzer Hazani, filed the suit after mounted police clubbed him and continued to hit him after he fell to the ground. He suffered a crushed jaw and bruises on most of his body.
