Gårdagens upplopp i Guinea. Herre gud... Det är så svårt att förstå att sånt här försigår. Så svårt att acceptera.. Jag blir mörkrädd. Kanske något att skriva i UPF tidningen om..? Jag funderar fortfarande på ämne. 

Eyewitnesses and medical personnel told Human Rights Watch that many of the bodies of protesters were riddled with bullet holes. Others had stab wounds from knives and bayonets. A number of women taking part in the demonstration were stripped naked and sexually assaulted by security forces, victims and witnesses said.

A second witness to the violence said:
"I saw the Red Berets [an elite unit within the military] catch some of the women who were trying to flee, rip off their clothes, and stick their hands in their private parts. Others beat the women, including on their genitals. It was pathetic – the women were crying out."

Another eyewitness said: "I saw several women stripped and then put inside the military trucks and taken away. I don’t know what happened to them."
