An IDF probe presented Tuesday to the head of the IDF's Central Command, Moshe Kaplinsky, concludes that an alleged case of intentional humiliation was unfounded.
Videos taken at the scene show that the man, Wissam Tayam, was asked by soldiers at the checkpoint to open the violin case for inspection and he then began playing, even though he was not asked to do so. After a few seconds, the Civil Administration's officer at the checkpoint asked Tayam to stop playing, the report states.
Kaplinsky said yesterday in response to the findings that the soldiers had shown a lack of sensitivity but not a lack of respect, nor did they intend to ridicule Tayam.
