COLOMBO - How terror became more important than human rights. And why this only leads to more terror. Three lessons from Chechnya, Kashmir and Sri Lanka.

Freedom is everything. But suppressed peoples live only with the dream of freedom. Freedom fighters get labeled terrorists, while in the meantime the regime can do what it wants. How continuous cruelty and unpunished crime can keep a people in a stranglehold.

Hanne Couderé traveled through Chechnya, Sri Lanka and Kashmir in search of victims of suppressing regimes.
