Nineteen men are awaiting “cross amputation” (amputation of the right hand and left leg) after they were convicted of armed robbery. The sentence was carried out on their five co-defendants, Ibrahim Gumai; Omer Salim; Salih Omer; Abakar Jalab; and Dafa Alla Mowloudi, on 25 and 27 January, and the rest are expected to face the same torture in the next few days.
