How Many Panadols Does It Take To Die

Il Massacro di Wia - The Wia Massacre


Massacre Wia
Italino version of NT
Another reprehensible mass killing was the massacre of WIA. The 2006 report of the Department of State, "Country Reports on Human Rights Practices" reports that 'June 10 [2005] military personnel killed 161 young people, who tried to flee the Wia military camp'. No action was taken against military personnel who shot and killed 161 young people. The victims were enrolled in the NMSP (National Military Service Programme), ended up in prison in detention for several reasons.
The massacre was intended to terrorize others, lest you decide to leave the country 'illegally' or not abscond once ended up in detention. The military camp of WIA was the same place where, in 2001, about 2,000 college students were arbitrarily detained for several weeks after having protested against the summer job, an unpopular government policy. During detention, two university students, and Yemen Yirga Yosief Tekie, have died because of harsh living conditions in the field.


The Massacre Wia

by Daniel
reprehensible Another mass killing Wia Was The Massacre. Quoting the US Department of State, in its 2006 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices reported that ‘on June 10 [2005] military personnel shot and killed 161 youths at Wia Military Camp who were trying to escape.’ No action was taken against military personnel who shot and killed the 161 youths. The victims were conscripts of the NMSP (National Military Service Programme), who were being kept in the detention camp for several reasons.
The massacre was meant to terrorise other conscripts, lest they decide to leave the country ‘illegally’ or escape once they were in detention. Wia Military Camp was the same place where, in 2001, some 2000 university students were arbitrarily detained for several weeks after protesting against the unpopular government policy of summer work. During the detention, two university students, and Yemane Tekie Yirga Yosief, died as a result of the harsh living conditions in the camp.
