Ending Police Torture
THIS particular violence is indeed too much. Kuswanto was accused of robbing a store in Kudus, Central Java. He was arrested by 13 policemen and tortured horribly. But he persevered, still refusing to confess.
"With my eyes blindfolded, my hands cuffed behind me, gasoline was poured on me and a match was lit to burn me," said Kuswanto. Today his burns have not healed. There's a gaping hole on his neck that drips blood. He has lost everything in order to pay for his medical expenses.
