Wife of Bedouin man killed by police at protest says truth becoming clear

The wife of a Bedouin man shot dead by police during a protest last month in the village of Umm al-Hiran tells Army Radio that her husband didn’t run over the police officer who was killed deliberately.

“We had no doubt,” Amal Abu Saad says, adding that the truth about the incident is starting to become clear. “Everyone who knew Yakoub knew and believed that this was the truth. Jews and Arabs alike who knew him didn’t believe he would do such a thing.”
