Backed by the System: Abuse and Torture at the Shikma Interrogation Facility

Report by HaMoked and B'Tselem describing the detention and interrogation conditions in the ISA interrogation facility in the Shikma prison. The report exposes a consistent pattern of cruel and humiliating treatment of interrogees in the facility, in clear violation of international law. The report demonstrates a combined system of torture, where the detention conditions in the facility, aimed at weakening the detainees' body and spirit, complement the interrogations themselves.
