“Consider these numbers: Hundreds of thousands of people locked in detention centers and subject to violent punishments. Millions imprisoned. Hundreds hanged, shot or beheaded. Tens of thousands killed by government forces and non-state actors. Thousands beaten and abused to extract information, and abused in government or private ‘treatment’ centers. Millions denied life-saving medicines. The U.N.’s International Narcotics Control Board has refused to condemn torture or ‘any atrocity’ carried out in the name of drug control, claiming it was not its mandate to do so.”
