Undertoad Wednesday Sep 25 03:29 PM September 25, 2013: Torture in Syria
"This Is What the World’s Bloodiest War Looks Like: A photo a day from the Syrian civil war" is the headline for an IotD on Medium, focusing on just this topic.
Quote:
Seventeen-year-old Ali Hassan made the mistake of hanging out with friends near a rebel checkpoint in Baba Amr. Suspecting he was a rebel fighter—something Hassan denies—the army arrested him in March. For four months he was passed between various regime intelligence agencies. He was tortured until he falsely confessed to being a fighter: electrocuted, cigarettes extinguished on his skin.
Released in July, he and his mother made their way to Lebanon and a sympathetic charity hospital. He wasn’t the only Baba Amr survivor there.
