Video: Horrors faced by Yemeni prisoners in UAE-controlled prisons

A new investigation published by the Associated Press reveals horrors faced by Yemeni prisoners in UAE-controlled prisons where hundreds of Yemeni detainees have been subjected to severe torture.

The investigation shows that torture is not limited to physical abuse, but that both male and female detainees are also subjected to sexual torture. Actions included harassment, rape, filming detainees while naked, subjecting prisoners’ genitals to electric shocks while also sexually violating others with wooden and steel poles.
