April 2015: Bhayangkara hospital used as place of torture by police | Papuans Behind Bars: At the end of April 2015, there were at least 44 political prisoners in Papua.

Papuan human rights groups reported two new cases of torture in Pirime and Lanny Jaya in the Central Highlands. In Lanny Jaya, two men were tortured in relation to the possession of a pistol belonging to a deceased relative which they had attempted to hand over to authorities in response to a weapons amnesty.
