A television camera team films Tawfik Salim for a 60 minute documentary on the consequences of the Wall.
While telling the story Tawfik Salim breaks down once again. TV team is helpful and finishes shooting quickly.
Tuesday, Dec. 14, 2004: Three Hours for Filing an Information
Jewish Westbank Settlement Qedumim: The only place for people from Jayyous to get permits to pass the Wall - in order to get to their own fields.
Tawfik, one meter kept apart from the counter, is refused a new 6-months-term of permission to his field. The reason given is, that only his brother is mentioned as owner of the land in the paper Tawfik Salim presents.

Tawfik Salim shortly before being
allowed to enter the area of the Israeli police station in the settlement of
Qedumim, where he wants to file an information against the company, which
has uprooted 117 of his olive trees. It will take three hour to do
that.
