The soldiers in rural Myanmar twisted the young man’s skin with pliers and kicked him in the chest until he couldn’t breathe.Then they taunted him about his family until his heart ached, too:“Your mom,” theyjeered, “cannot save you anymore.”
The young man and his friend, randomly arrested as they rode their bikes home, were subjected to hours of agony inside a town hall transformed by the military into a torturecenter. As the interrogators’blows rained down,their relentless questions tumbled through his mind.
