Correspondent programe on BBC2 sunday night 7.00pm told the disturbing story of how, during the 1950's, the brit colonial army brutally and effectively put down the Mau, mau rebellion in Kenya. A Harvard American resercher, has been taking down accounts by Kenyan survivors of the massacre, detailing the mass torture and murder perpetrated under the brit colonial rule at the time. Mau, mau rebels were sent to special camps, where they were made to retract their mau, mau vows before they were allowed to be released. Kenyan mau mau rebel survivors, told of the torture they endured at the hands of brutal brit camp commandents, many told how they were hung upside down, naked and beaten repeatedly until they recanted their mau mau vows. One kenyan mau, mau rebel told how the beatings he endured, were so bad, that he had been castrated by the blows to his lower body. Another mau mau rebel showed the scars, from subsequent operations to his belly, he had to have to rectify the damage to his internal organs due to the ferocity and brutality of the beatings given by brit soldiers. Others told of the anal torture they had witnessed the brit soldiers perpetrate, holding mau mau victims upside down, and alternately pouring sand and water into the interrogated mau-mau's anal passage, and pushing the mixture in with a long stick, this continued untill the victim recanted or died. Kenyan wimin and children villagers, who were suspected of supporting the mau, mau, were herded into more special compounds, where the mau-mau wimin and young girls, were beaten, raped, straved while being forced to do gruelling hard labour. The elderly kenyan survivors of these camps told of the terrible hunger, stravation and admitted with visible shame, that wimin and girls were raped repeatedly in front of their siblings and grandparents by brutal brit colonial soldiers. One woman told of how she was beaten, with her 6 month old baby strapped to her back, how the baby took most of the blows from brit soldiers and later died. Another told of how during a beating, her 2 yr old child had run towards her, to comfort her and was trampled to death, by hefty brit soldiers. Thousands died and were buried in unmarked graves. The kenyan mau-mau survivors of the brit army colonial repression, are now seeking compensation/reparation for the suffering and torture they endured at the hands of brit colonial soldiers.
