2006 blasts: 19 years later, they are free, but ‘feel like a stranger in this world’

Imagine your father being paraded naked in front of you and your acquaintances. Your 12-year-old son being slapped in the middle of the night. Your wife or sister being humiliated. Imagine yourself being stripped naked and subjected to months of brutal violence. Cut off from your loved ones for years, unable to perform your parents’ last rites, unable to see your wife, mother, father, or children. Imagine your children being mocked in school, their futures ruined, marriage proposals called off, and jobs lost, simply because they were related to you.
