Continuing the tour. With the cells and torture tools, 3rd picture displaying a preferred method of repeat dunkings from meat hooks...

To understand what happened there, I have spent an hour to research more details with google.
Thanks for sharing impressive pics, Hugh.

It is remarkable what went on back then. Especially as S21 is in the middle of Phnom Penh.

Next set is the leaders of the Kymer Rouge and more of the cells which they were kept in.
