[ 19/03/2011 - 08:13 PM ] The restrictions placed on them could have negative long-term effects, Silwan committee member Fakhri Abu Diab said in a press statement Friday.
He said dozens of children have been dealt with harshly in Israeli prisons and during investigations.
He pointed out several cases of hysteria, mental disorders, nightmares, fear of darkness, speech impediments and aggressive chills, illnesses not present prior to their detention.
He said families and teachers have noticed major behavioral changes after they were released from Israeli prisons.
Abu Diab called on children's rights groups to act urgently to protect Jerusalem's children and help treat those affected by the Israeli policy targeting.
