Lawyers say prisoners beaten

Lawyers for two Palestinians who were captured after escaping from an Israeli prison last week said Wednesday their clients were badly beaten during their arrest, with the most wellknown of the prisoners suffering a broken jaw and two broken ribs while in handcuffs. Six Palestinian prisoners, five of whom have been accused of deadly attacks against Israelis, tunnelled out of a prison in northern Israel on Sept. 6 in the first mass prison break in decades. Four were recaptured around five days later.
