Officers claim bruise similar to a triangle was caused by a boot pressed against his face, but forensics experts reject this, says local media.
Forensic Medicine Agency reported that no match was found between a boot and the facial mark.
Before the hearing, Ali’s lawyer, Ekrem Abu-Libde, said police kept him in a detention centre without performing a health check, although it was legally mandatory. ”It is clear that serious violence was committed against the suspect in custody," it said, confirming that he had also not undergone a medical check-up.Responding to Ali's claims, Israeli police said he resisted arrest and that a “bruise” on his cheek similar to a triangle was most likely caused by a boot pressed against his face.
