From the Paper:
"Herat's civilians, under the command of local governor, Ismail Khan, have been subjected to arbitrary and politically motivated arrests, intimidation, extortion, and torture. These civilians have also been denied their rights to free expression and association. The more serious cases of torture have involved hanging detainees upside down, whippings, and electric shocks. Members of the Pashtun minority have been the largest targets of abuse."
