كثيرون منا عرفوا هذه الصورة لشرطي فلسطيني ينظم السير في مدينة القدس عام ١٩٣٤ بعد نشرها قبل مدّة، ولكن ما لا يعرفه الكُثُر وأنا منهم، أن الشخص الذي يظهر بالصورة هو "أحمد محمد جاسر الرمحي" فلسطيني من قرية المزيرعة المهجّرة قضاء الرملة، ولم أكن لأعرفه لولا صدفة جميلة جمعتني الاسبوع الماضي بحفيدته خلال جولة "كنا وما زلنا" في الأردن، اذ تعرّفَت الشابّة أُلفت الرّمحي على صورة جدها وروت لي قصّته.
كان المرحوم الرمحي شرطياً فلسطينياً من قضاء الرملة خدم في العديد من المدن وأهمها القدس، وفي نكبة فلسطين هُجّر من قريته المزيرعة التي طهّرت عرقياً على أيدي العصابات الصهيونية في إطار عملية "داني" في ١٢ تموز ١٩٤٨ ليتوفَى في عمّان عام ١٩٧٦.
وقوّة الشرطة الفلسطينية هي قوة تابعة لسلطات الانتداب البريطاني، كانت تكال إليها مهمات الحفاظ على النظام الداخلي، والقدرة على مواجهة التعديات الصغيرة، التي تأتي من الخارج ولا تستدعي تدخلاً عسكرياً.
أما شروط الالتحاق بقوة الشرطة الفلسطينية فكانت القدرة على القراءة والكتابة، وحسن السلوك واللياقة البدنية. وأن يكون سنّه بين ٢٠ و٢٥ سنة، وأن يكون فلسطيني الجنسية، أو مسموحاً له بالإقامة الدائمة في فلسطين. كانت الغالبية الساحقة من هذه القوّة هي من العرب الفلسطينيين ويقول تقرير اللجنة الملكية ١٩٣٧ على لسان أحد الشهود البريطانيين: “إن قوات البوليس الفلسطيني تقوم بمهامها العادية في الأحوال العادية خير قيام، ولكن عندما تكون المسألة مسألة ثورة مسلحة، ويكون الواجب الملقى على عاتق هذه القوات اتخاذ الإجراءات ضد مواطنيهم ومقاتليهم فلا يمكن الاعتماد عليهم”.

Many of us know this picture of a Palestinian officer regulating traffic in Jerusalem in 1934 that was posted a while ago. However, what many don’t know, me included, is that the officer in the photo is Ahmad Mohamad Jasser Al-Ramahi; a Palestinian from Almuzayria’a village, a displaced village near Ramla. I wouldn’t have known that without a beautiful coincidence that brought me together with his granddaughter earlier this year in Jordan during a small tour I was on for “We were and still are? here”. His granddaughter recognized the picture of her grandfather and told me his story.

The late Al-Ramahi was a Palestinian officer from the Ramla district who served in several cities, and most importantly Jerusalem. During the Palestinian Nakba, Al-Ramahi was forced to flee his village Almuzayria’a that was ethnically cleansed by the Zionist gangs under Dani’s operation on the 12th of July 1948 to pass away in Amman in 1976.

The Palestinian police forces belonged to the authorities of the British Mandate which were entrusted with several tasks to maintain the internal order, and the ability to overcome small violations that come from outside and do not require the intervention of the military.

As for the requirements for joining the Palestinian Police forces, they were: the ability to read and right, the good physical health and behavior, and to be between the ages of 20 and 25. They also should be Palestinian citizens, or has a permanent residency permit in Palestine. The majority of these forces were Arab Palestinians. The Royal Commission report of 1937 says “The Palestinian Police Forces do all their assigned tasks on daily basis. However, when there is an armed revolutionary act, and they are obligated to take measurements against their own civilians, you can’t rely on them” says a British witness
