The following is a description of some of the cases taken on by the Rehabilitation Centre: 1. After the tragic events in the south of Kyrgyzstan in June 2010, Citizen X was detained and brought to one of the departments of the Service of Financial Police with the purpose of “documenting property” that was burnt during the June events. However, instead of conducting this documentation procedure, the police officers charged X with burning his neighbor’s house. During the interrogation, with the intent of eliciting a confession, the police officers started to beat him with their fists and to kick his head, chest, and kidneys. They also verbally berated and humiliated him. The victim was near the window, and while beating him one of police officers pushed him out the third-floor window of the Financial Police’s administrative building. At the time of examination, the staff of the Rehabilitation Centre determined X’s health condition to be grave. X could not move independently. According to doctors’ conclusions, despite undergoing surgery immediately following this trauma, X needs one more surgery for which his relatives have no money. The staff of the Rehabilitation Centre met with the chief doctor at the city clinic hospital. At the meeting, they agreed to perform the surgery in November 2011 in Osh, as X’s untransportable condition excluded the possibility of carrying out his surgery and rehabilitation course in Bishkek. As a project participant, he will be helped to obtain the necessary medicine and surgery. 2. One of the victims who completed the rehabilitation program was K, who was tortured by GAI (traffic police) officers who stopped his car at a block-post when he was travelling to Osh with his family and demanded to see his documents. Despite the fact that his documents were in order, the GAI officers demanded money. They started to beat K’s chest, offending and humiliating him on grounds of his ethnicity, and threatened to throw him into a canal. They also demanded that he leave the country, as he is a representative of an ethnic minority. During his examination, it was determined that K suffered severe psychological stress as a result of this incident. K completed his course of rehabilitation in Bishkek, receiving medical treatment in the general health department of the hospital administered by the Executive Office of the President of the KR. In addition to the full course of diagnostics and treatment in the hospital, he received psychotherapeutic and psychological care in order to eliminate his posttraumatic disorder. His condition will be monitored for one year. 3. During the visit to Osh, Rehabilitation Centre staff examined M., who was tortured by law enforcement officers while in pre-trial detention for four days, despite the fact that she is disabled person of the first group and suffers from a severe form of insular diabetes. While detained, she was given no water, insulin, or food. M claims that absence of insulin resulted in the suppuration of her heel bone. Later doctors had to amputate her leg. At present M. Is hospitalized and receives inpatient treatment in the Centre for rehabilitation of persons with disabilities under the Ministry of Social Protection of the KR. She is working closely with a psychologist in order to address her deep depression and posttraumatic stress disorder. Six victims of torture refused rehabilitation for various reasons. Four of them refused rehabilitation due to officials’ threats and pressure, which became an additional challenge for this component of the project. One other substantial problem turned out to be the absence of some victims’ identification documents, which were lost either during the June 2010 events or intentionally destroyed by law enforcement officers during interrogations and torture sessions. Three survivors of torture and ill-treatment applied to delay their participation in the December 2011 rehabilitation course, citing the necessity of finishing their work in the fields (the only source of income for their families). 88
