Jordanian lawyer Samih Khreis said that Ahmad Daqamseh, the Jordanian soldier who was recently released from prison after serving his sentence for the murder of seven Israeli schoolgirls, had been under psychological pressure because "Israeli men and women would come and engage in sex where the soldiers could see and hear." Khreis, who had been a member of Al-Daqamseh's legal defense team, was speaking on Alordon Alyoum TV on March 12, the day of Daqamseh's release from prison.


Samih Khreis: "Al-Daqamseh and all the other (Jordanian) soldiers there were subject to psychological pressure. The Israeli men and women would come, and would engage in sex where the soldiers could see and hear, but the soldiers were not allowed to say or do anything in protest. In addition, some people would come to mock the (soldiers) when they were praying. So there was an accumulation of things that led to the moment of explosion."


Interviewer: "So there were provocations..."


Samih Khreis: "Many things accumulated, until the moment of explosion. Look, the Israeli men and women would come and have sex there."
