On 5 May 2007, the Border Police set up a flying checkpoint near 'Ajjul, Nablus District. The police officers removed three young men from taxis that were waiting at the checkpoint and took them behind the Border Police jeep, where one of the officers severely beat the men with his club for more than ten minutes.
The three men filed a complaint at the Israel police station in Beit El. On 17 September 2007, the Department for the Investigation of Police informed B'Tselem that, following completion of the investigation and examination of the evidence, DIP had decided to "prosecute the suspect for assault causing injury and for other offenses."
