Why we published graphic video and photographs from Burundi
"Sometimes pictures can say so much more than words. Actually seeing the bodies just lying there in the street brings home what people go through on a daily basis. You can hear about somebody having been tied up before being killed, but when you actually see the marks of the ropes and the arms bound behind the back, you realize the extent of the atrocities. Residents live with this level of violence on their doorsteps day in, day out. Most of us can’t imagine such a thing."
