Tanzanians' silence amid serious human rights abuses worrying

Activists Boniface Mwangi and Agather Atuhaire narrating their harrowing experiences at the hands of Tanzanian Authorities last Month. [Benard Orwongo, 

I write these words with a heavy heart, my soul crushed by the inhumanity I have witnessed and the brutal stories I carry with me. Not as a rumour or an allegation but as a truth so horrifying that it will forever stain the conscience of our continent if left unchallenged.

Boniface Mwangi and Uganda's Agather Atuhaire were two brave and unarmed citizens of Africa who were subjected to four days of unspeakable torture in Tanzania. This was not in secret detention camps of a rogue militia but at the hands of Tanzanian state security agents. A country that boasts of peace and hospitality has now been cast into infamy for acts that no human being should ever suffer. Acts that can only be described as crimes against humanity.
