The Jerusalem Post writes that Palestinian men from Gaza are reporting to have been tortured by Egyptian General Intelligence:
According to the Palestinians, who returned to the Gaza Strip last week, the torture methods included severe beatings, stripping naked, sleep deprivation, sensory deprivation, electric shocks, whippings and verbal abuse.
The Gazans, who were suspected of membership in Hamas, entered Egypt during the 12 days after thousands of Palestinians knocked down the border fence on January 23.
They were detained without trial and without the possibility of seeing a lawyer or family members.
