Europe

A forensic expert assessment by IRCT exposes “compelling evidence” of “a coordinated policy and practice of systematic torture and ill-treatment against Belarusian citizens” detained for protesting 2020’s rigged presidential elections in Europe’s last dictatorship.

In the heart of South Netherlands’ Den Bosch, PTC-ZN is one of Europe’s leading specialists in treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, including in torture survivors.

The IRC in Kyiv was established in 1994 to treat survivors of Soviet Russian torture, and Nazi concentration camps.
