According to Amnesty International: "On 20 June, Bashir Tijani (not his real name), a 35-year-old farmer and cleric, was arrested during another screening in Konduga. He told Amnesty International that 50 soldiers came to the mosque after prayer time. The soldiers told the men to gather at the residence of the district head. “Many of the people were running but I did not run – I assumed nothing would happen. While we are sitting, they divided us into two separate groups: old men and youths. Then they told the youths to remove their clothes and they started calling one after another. They separated 25 of us and put us in the sun. Out of the 25, 14 of us were separated because we look skinny and have marks on our bodies. They then tied us with rope behind [our back], beat us with sticks and put us in a car to Giwa Barracks.” Ten of the 14 men died in custody of thirst, starvation, injuries and illness. Bashir was released a month later, after his relatives paid a bribe." ^[+]
