Ukrainian survivor of Russian torture files legal complaint in #Argentina

A Ukrainian man has filed a criminal complaint to Argentina's Federal Judiciary against the Russian occupying forces who tortured him, The Reckoning Project (TRP), an international NGO that works to bring war crime cases to court, announced on April 16.

Argentina's constitution allows for trials on "international crimes, including crimes against humanity and #WarCrimes, irrespective of where they took place," on the basis of universal jurisdiction, TRP said in a press release.

Though this case is the first time a #Ukrainian #torture complaint has been filed in Argentina, Mr M said that he is "one of so many cases."

Horrifying eyewitness reports of torture and mistreatment by israeli police and military by Palestinians released from the draconian Israeli detention

Israel since many years ago, Israeli police and occupation forces can grab and imprison Palestinians without ever charging thrm.

During their detention, they can't have access to legal help nor visit by outside organizations such as Red Cross or Red Cresent, much less human rights organizations.

The testimonies of these people are the top of an iceberg of people who were subjected to the most barbaric type of torture, both physical and psychological and various types of mistreatments including sleep deprivation and starvation.

Almost every human rights organization in the world has loads of such testimonies, including autopsy reports of those who were killed under torture, something that was blocked after Israeli government stopped releasing the bodies of the Palestinians who died in their custody.

Videos are in Arabic with no subtitles, but I will update them when such are available.

Israeli Officer Who Ordered Illegal Search of Palestinian Woman's Genitals Gets Promotion

The officer ordered two female soldiers to conduct the invasive search on suspicion that the woman was hiding a SIM card to communicate with Hamas members.

The case against the officer and others involved was initially closed in 2018 due to insufficient evidence, despite the search being illegal and lacking intelligence justification.

However, following media reporting, the officer was temporarily suspended pending a new Military Police investigation into the incident.

Lawyers who managed to visit the Israeli Nafha prison reported that Palestinian prisoners there are suffering from an escalating persistence in the policy of torture employed in their daily treatment.

A lawyer from the Palestinian Prisoners and Freed Prisoners' Affairs Commission stated in a statement today that there is a common wall between the room where the lawyers are located and a corridor inside the prison. Through it, they heard the sounds of prisoners being beaten, tortured, and screaming.

They are subjected to insults and forced to utter obscene and derogatory words. These sounds likely originate from places of detention for prisoners from the #Gaza Strip.

After two years of solitary confinement, prisoner Ahmed Manasra was transferred to join his fellow prisoners.

Ahmed suffered from #torture, abuse, and isolation, as well as loss of vision (due to lack of sunlight) and mental illness due to his solitary confinement. He has been held captive for 8 years after he was abducted at 13 years old in 2015.

The Israeli prison administration also provided him with contaminated food and prevented his family from sending him money to buy food from the cantina.

Ahmed's solitary confinement was set to end 6 months ago in September, and he has served 8.5 years of his 9.5 year sentence, with the last two in solitary confinement. #FreeThemAll

West Papua: The Torture Mode Of Governance

Counterpunch

Budi Hernawan said it ten years ago: “torture in Papua … has become a mode of governance.” It hasn’t stopped. It’s got worse. It’s got worse precisely because it’s a mode of governance accepted and blessed by the international “community” whose neoliberal politics of extraction means extermination of anything and anyone getting in its way.

A French man serving in the Israeli military has released footage showing blindfolded and tied up Palestinians who were kidnapped by the IDF, while gloating over their torture.

In the video, he is heard cursing at the Palestinian prisoners, using derogatory language, and mocking their torture. He specifically mocked a prisoner who had urinated himself while tied up, laughing at him.

~ Al-Mayadeen

A member of the Palestinian telegram channel has translated the content of the video shared on telegram: https://t.me/newsvideofa/1541

The last days of Julian #Assange in the United States

source: https://www.declassifieduk.org/the-last-days-of-julian-assange-in-the-united-states/

“I’m in this cell, and then the first thing I remember is one thing that Nelson Mandela said: that years pass like minutes in prison, but the minutes, they pass like years. And I remember I kept going to the door and looking at that digital clock. And I’m thinking that it’s been, like, several hours, but it’s been like 10 minutes.”

I would like to point out that the “Collateral Murder” video would not have been published without #Wikileaks.

Source: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/feb/28/manning-washington-post-new-york-times

Journalists were already so frightened before the Assange case that they didn’t risk publishing the war crime.

To illustrate the inhumanity of the system, the following anecdote should be mentioned: The secret service stole Assange’s shaving kit from the Equadorian embassy so that he would look bearded when he was arrested. They did this to downgrade his credibility in public by making him look so scruffy.

The rule of #law is not guaranteed in the #West if those in #power agree to break it.
