Summary[edit]
| Description | Drawings of illustrating in the DRP Korea, page 218 of the Detailed Report of the Commission of Inquiry on Human Rights in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
The drawings are made by an escapee of the DPRK, and victim of these torture techniques. The author explains how the so-called ‘pigeon torture’ works. [Y]our hands are handcuffed behind your back. And then they hang you so you would not be able to stand or sit. (...)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. |
