Venezuelan Detainees Describe Abuse in El Salvador’s Mega-Prison
Former inmates recount torture and inhumane conditions inside the high-security facility.
Venezuelan nationals recently released from El Salvador’s mega-prison have described severe abuse and torture during their detention.
The inmates claim they were subjected to beatings, humiliation, and psychological intimidation while held without due process.
Human rights advocates are demanding an international investigation into the prison’s conditions, which have been condemned as part of President Nayib Bukele’s harsh crackdown on crime.
