Another inmate, who had been arrested in September 1999 in Oaxaca by a police patrol, said that he had been beaten when detained and during his arrest and during his time in the judicial police cells, where he had also been threatened in order to force him to confess to participation in a case of bodily injury and rape.

Of the arrests, two had taken place in 1998, two in 1999, one in 2000 and the rest between May and June 2001. One of the men arrested in 1998 said that he had been subjected to psychological, but not to physical pressure; three said that they had been hit repeatedly; the others said that they had been hit, threatened and subjected to other forms of torture, such as the pouring of water into their noses or mouths, the placing of plastic bags (which in one case contained lime) over their heads, or mock executions. One woman said that she had been raped repeatedly, an assertion borne out by the medical examinations carried out when she entered the prison. The perpetrators of those acts had been: in seven cases, members of the judicial police, in two cases, members of the judicial police and police patrols, in one case, members of the municipal police, and in one case, members of a police patrol. 31.

All of them said that they had been arrested in Acapulco; the exception was the only woman to have been interviewed, who said that she had been arrested in Apango. Two of the arrests took place in July 2000 and the remainder in 2001. One of the male detainees said that he had been burnt with a cigarette lighter; another had suffered a cut ear, and several, including the woman, had had a bag placed over their head and/or carbonated water or water containing chilli powder poured into their nose; one man had been given electric shocks. The perpetrators of those acts had been: in six cases members of the judicial police, in two cases, police patrols, and in one case, members of the municipal police. The worst forms of torture had been inflicted by members of the judicial police. In addition to those nine inmates, the Committee members interviewed three detainees who said they had not been tortured or ill-treated.
