The defence force in Eswatini (Swaziland) has been ordered to pay damages to a civilian tortured by troops who suspected him of stealing an Army vehicle. The victim was eventually rescued by the police.
This article notes a series of other cases in which the country's troops have abused civilians. The question is whether anyone in the defence force has been prosecuted in either civilian court or a court-martial for this kind of misconduct.
