Torture is abhorrent. Torture is illegal.
Yet Torture is inflicted on men, women and children in well over
half the countries of the world. Despite the universal condemnation
of torture, it is still used to extract confessions, to interrogate,
to punish or to intimidate. In Police stations and prison cells,
on city streets and in remote villages, torturers continue to
inflict physical agony and mental anguish. Their cruelty kills,
or leaves scars on the body and mind that last a lifetime.
The victims of torture are not just the
people in the hands of the torturers. Friends, families and the
wider community all suffer. Torture even damages and distorts
the hopes of future generations.
Amnesty International and other organisations
have been campaigning against torture for almost 40 years. Take
a Step to Stamp Out Torture and One Click To Stamp Out Torture
are boosts to the continuing work against torture. They are global
campaigns, launched simultaneously in more than 60 countries.
They utilise Amnesty International's experience in gaining media
coverage, in publications and in lobbying, as well as mobilising
the million individual members Amnesty International has worldwide.
Please join amnesty
