In the Philippines, a member of the UN Human Rights Council, Police Officers Play Torture Roulette with Inmates

"The Philippines' Commission on Human Rights (CHR) discovered the 'torture roulette' table during a routine visit to the facility. The officers have a list of different torture positions or 'torture consequences' which are chosen by spinning a roulette wheel. A '30 second bat position' for example, meant that the detainee would be hung upside down like a bat for 30 seconds. A '20 second Manny Pacquiao' meant that a detainee would be punched non-stop for twenty seconds.

The CHR reported that 44 detainees at the Philippine National Police Laguna Provincial Intelligence in Biñan, Laguna province had accused at least 10 law enforcement officers of torture and extortion.

'Drinking sprees' by the police officers also led to further torture and ill-treatment incidents of the criminal suspects in the police facility."
