The case of Kasim Kanji is one of many human rights abuses committed by the regime. Young Kasim was stopped by police, picked up by military personnel, tortured, broke his neck and left for dead.
The police ask that the parents of Kasim sign a declarative statement absolving the government of all responsibility. When they refused, they were taken into custody.
