- Special Zone Surrounding Finfinne
Detainees at Tullu Dimtu The following five women are among many being held in barbaric conditions in Tullu Dimtu, an unofficial detention centre in Akaki Kaliti sub-city, Finfinnee (see list of detainees below). They have been tortured and used as sex slaves because they are suspected of supporting the OLF. They have been warned not to meet or talk with each other; not to be in the same room or eat together. Each of them is reported to show signs of physical and mental distress and each reports that their ‘reproductive organ was the target of torture and they still suffer excruciating pain’.
