Case Details:<br />

211<br />

On 30 October 2007, victim Ajbar Ali Seikh went to his agricultural field. There, BSF POs from<br />

10 Point Camp caught Ajbar and accused him of cattle smuggling. The BSF officers tortured<br />

Ajbar, kicking him and beating him with bamboo sticks. The BSF officers forced Ajbar to lie on<br />

the ground, and then they jumped on him. When he lost consciousness, the BSF officers poured<br />

hot water on him to wake him up. They then resumed torturing him in the same manner.<br />

After the assault, Ajbar began urinating blood. Ajbar was taken to the hospital on condition that he<br />

will not reveal the torture meted to him. He was taken to the Singhpara head Quarter of BSF and<br />

later to Jalangi Customs Office. Though the signs of torture were visible, out of fear of the police,<br />

he lied and stated he was not tortured. The BSF officers forced Ajbar to sign a paper stating that<br />

he was not tortured.<br />

A case was registered against Ajbar at the Jalangi PS for a petty case. Ajbar was released from<br />

custody, and now is living in penury.<br />
