In addition to this around December, 1991, the police raided my house based on some unconfirmed reports by some body. While I was asleep the police arrived and began to hammer on the door. I was awakened and dragged outside, put me inside a jeep and dumped me into a launch. Then they took me to Dhoonidhoo Island . This time as soon as I was taken there, I was locked up inside a cell measuring 6 feet by 5 feet. The cell was made out of corrugated iron sheets. On the second night, I was removed from my cell. It was midnight. I was cuffed with a single lock handcuff and was put back into the cell. I was kept cuffed like this for 20 days. Showers were only allowed on Fridays. They put large granules of salt and sand into the food given to me. When confined inside the corrugated –sheet cell, around two pm in the afternoon, one would lose consciousness due to the extreme heat. After several hours I would wakeup. When you are cuffed like this you cannot seperate your palms from your elbows. They are stuck together. In this posture, it is not possible to wash yourself after your bowel movements. During this occasion I was cuffed by abdul Shakoor Abdulla. While he was doing this cuffing he told that there was nothing he could do about it. And he said he was just following orders.

In this inhumane interrogation I was subject to, Thoha waheed, Mora Thaufeeg , Lady Ibrahim Maniku and a very foul mouthed Vaavu Lhahuthu participated. During the time of this interrogation a considerable number of inmates were tortured. There were cases when inmates were chained and put in stocks. In this manner Winter Shareef and Ahmed Rasheed were kept for months in stocks.
