The Victims (With Links)
From the moment of their abduction, the victims lost all rights. Deprived of
all communication with the outside world, held in unknown places,
subjected to barbaric tortures, kept ignorant of their immediate or ultimate
fate, they risked being either thrown into a river or the sea, weighted down
with blocks of cement, or burned to ashes. They were not mere objects,
however, and still possessed all the human attributes: they could feel pain,
could remember a mother, child or spouse, could feel infinite shame at being
raped in public...
Although there are very few testimonies in this page, each one of them
represents the thousands of documented cases which tell a similar story - the
personal horror of men, women and children who were victims of their own
government.
