Maelezo ya B'Tselem (imetafsiriwa kutoka Kiingereza)
Al-Halak alikuwa na usonji (autism). Alipigwa risasi sehemu ya juu ya kiwiliwili na maafisa wa Polisi wa Mpakani waliodai kuwa alikuwa amebeba bunduki, baada ya kumkimbia mmoja wao na kuingia katika chumba cha taka. Uchunguzi wa B'Tselem uligundua kuwa maafisa hao walimpiga risasi al-Halak akiwa amelala chini, baada ya mfanyakazi wa taasisi aliyokuwa akihudhuria kila siku kuwaambia kuwa ni mlemavu na kujaribu kuwazuia wasimpige risasi.
Maandishi asilia
Al-Halak was on the autistic spectrum. He was shot in the upper torso by Border Police officers who claimed he was carrying a gun, after he ran away from one of them and entered a garbage room. B'Tselem's investigation found that the officers shot al-Halak as he lay on the ground, after a staff member from the institution he attended daily told them he was disabled and tried to dissuade them from shooting him.
