Second Circuit on Torture

April 08, 2007 (1 min read)

"The IJ also held that Hassan's July 1991 beating did not constitute torture. We are uncertain of the basis for this conclusion because it would seem that being beaten with three-foot sticks for half an hour, as Hassan testified, would cause "severe pain" as required by the regulation defining torture." Hassan v. Gonzales, Mar. 30, 2007.
