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 />
