Le torture in Corea del Nord disegnate da un sopravvissuto
Al drammatico resoconto che emerge dal rapporto della commissione d'inchiesta ONU sulla sistematica violazione dei diritti umani nei campi di prigionia in Corea del Nord si aggiunge il racconto di Kim Kwang-il, ex prigioniero di un campo di concentramento nordcoreano, che descrive con l'aiuto di disegni l'uso scientifico della tortura per soffocare il dissenso interno nel regime di Pyongyang.
Pigeon Torture: According to one prisoner, "Your hands are handcuffed behind your back. And then they hang you so you would not be able to stand or sit" for up to three days. "There are no people watching you. There is nobody. And you can't stand, you can't sleep. If you are hung like that for three days, four days, you urinate, you defecate, you are totally dehydrated. ... [the pigeon torture] was the most painful of all tortures... [it] was so painful that I felt it was better to die."
