Bethlehem - Ma'an - The Palestinian Center for Human Rights said two Gaza residents were kidnapped, tortured and beaten by gunmen in two separate incidents in Khan Younis and Gaza City between 2-3 April.
The PCHR said that on Saturday, gunmen kidnapped Ziad Abu Haiya from Khan Yunis and took him to an unknown destination, where he was subjected to torture and severe beating.
On Friday, gunmen kidnapped Mohammed Mdokh from the An-Nasser neighborhood in the north of Gaza City. He was taken to an unknown destination, where he was also severely beaten.
According to Ziad Abu Haiya, 35, who works in the Preventive Security Service, while he was riding his motorcycle close to his home last Saturday, he was intercepted by masked gunmen driving a Subaru car, a PCHR statement read.
"They forced him to get into the car at gunpoint, handcuffed him and covered his head with a sack ... He was detained in a room after cuffing his feet, tying his hands to a window and asking him to turn his face to the wall. They then started beating him on his back, neck and different parts of his body," the statement said.
