The nightmare of every parent who sends their children to soccer fields this year is to get a phone call with the news that their child has been injured or caught in a violent incident.
Natalie Blue, the mother of 17-year-old Roi, who was attacked by police yesterday (Monday) after the game between Hapoel Tel Aviv and Maccabi Haifa, experienced the nightmare firsthand.
The testimony Roy posted yesterday, on social media, alongside the video in which he was seen being attacked, is particularly disturbing: "Curse me, spit on me, and strangle a signal. I begged them to stop, that I did nothing and I was just a 17-year-old student and child, but it did not interest them."
In a conversation with Israel Today, Natalie Blue says: "We went to the emergency room yesterday, he has been beaten, bruised, he is injured but fine. They came off the field and the police started pushing a lot of fans. They pushed him, pushed a fan that fell to the floor, then he turned around and asked." What happened?
What happened?
Why push a man "because there was order and everyone left the stadium" The cover story of the policeman, is that Roy walked around in a panic and thought he would attack him, then they started kicking him, you see it in the video, kicked him in the ribs, dragged him on the floor, there is a video you see a policeman sitting On his neck.
"They just kicked him from the right and the left, and there was another group of policemen who hid her badges and stood like a wall so that they would not be photographed."
As of this writing, no police representative has spoken to Natalie Blue, who says: "If the cops understood what they were doing and did not rush with the hand on the trigger all this would have been avoided, but you are looking to get your rage and frustrations out of the house then so be it "We are considering our steps in an orderly manner and do not want to act out of a place of nerves. We want justice, the police did not act on the matter."
Hapoel Tel Aviv general manager Odelia Friedman spoke with the Blue family, and later one of the Reds' doctors came to visit them during training.
