Torture is a way to claim strength, power and the ability to harm others whenever and however it is occurred to them. It is an effective method to force the weak to do what the torturer wants, to confess or even a way to please a third party backed by the police or assumes high position or at least a statesman as was the case in most of the instances….
Torture is one of the most horrible methods known to humanity.
