Somali women beaten, tortured, raped, and burned by tyrant Meles Zenawi forces
Name: Kowsar Yusuf Gud’Ade Age: 23 Kowsar was arbitrarily detained by the Ethiopian army. In detention, she was severely beaten and tortured. The soldiers used different methods of torture including electrocution. Kowsar’s left arm was broken during one of the many beating sessions. Kowsar begged for mercy and asked for medical attention, but the army denied her any treatment. She was eventually released. No explanation was given for the arrest or the subsequent release. Kowsar sought treatment for her injuries. As shown in the picture above, the injury was severe and the damage could not be reversed as the treatment facilities in the ****** are not equipped to deal with such severe injuries. She fled the region shortly after her release. Kowsar is now in constant pain and has so far not received the proper medical attention.
Farhia Mohamed Mahad Age: 20 Civilians are arrested and jailed on mere suspicions of being part of the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF) and Farhia was no exception. Farhia was only a child when she was arbitrarily detained and jailed at Garbo Jail in the ******. No explanation was given for her arrest and subsequent imprisonment.
