One of the most horrific of atrocities that security forces in Oromia commit is pulling political prisoners out of jail and executing them. They then leave the bodies in surrounding forests to be found at random.
Degefu Debela Dhaba was being kept in Inango prison by the federal military. His body was found on Wednesday in a nearby forest.
In Jimma, there have been 10 cases of summary executions in the last week alone. Hussein Hajjii was pulled out of prison and killed just last night- his family is still being refused his body.
