13-02-26 Refugees secretly expelled by Israel


Letter to Haaretz Editor:
The 2012 Human Rights Alert (NGO) submission on Human Rights in Israel was primarily based on data and systems analysis of the justice system in Israel.  The submission found discontinuities in detainees' ID numbers.  The submission also recorded the refusal of the Ministry of Justice to respond on request, pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act: What are the names and physical addresses of the Detainees' Courts in Israel?
The submission raises serious concern that "black hole" prisons exist in Israel, and ad-hoc "field courts", related to the same matter.
The 2012 Human Rights Alert submission was incorporated into the 2013 report of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations, pertaining to Human Rights in Israel, with a note referring to "lack of integrity in the electronic records of the supreme court, the district courts and the detainees courts in Israel".
