===Israel=== In [[Israel]], according to Sections 28 (Hearing arguments of the detainee) and Section 31 (Explanation of rights to the detainee) of the Criminal Procedure Law (Enforcement Authority—Arrests) 1996, an officer interrogating/arresting a suspect must duly warn him first that he does not have to say any thing that may incriminate him, and that any thing he will say may be used against him. According to Israeli law, the exercise of the right to remain silent may be considered as supplemental evidence in most cases, and this fact also needs to be explained to the suspect.<ref>Criminal Procedure Law (Enforcement Authority—Arrests) 1996 section 28 [http://www.nevo.co.il/law_html/law01/055_103.htm#Seif17] (in Hebrew).</ref> Also the officer needs to inform the suspect that he has the right to notify a family member or acquaintance and a lawyer of his arrest, his right for counsel, and the duration he can be held before he is released or brought before a judge.<ref>Criminal Procedure Law (Enforcement Authority—Arrests) 1996 section 31 [http://www.nevo.co.il/law_html/law01/055_103.htm#Seif21] (in Hebrew).</ref> Israeli law has not adopted the "[[Fruit of the poisonous tree|Fruits of the Poisoned Tree]]" doctrine, and flaws in the process of collecting it affect only the weight of tainted evidence. However, in Criminal Appeal 5121/98, ''Issaharov v. The Military Prosecutor'', a court of nine ruled that the defendant's confession, given without proper warning regarding the right of representation, was not considered as given with consent and free will, and was not accepted by the court.
