 I don't know about torture. I have educated myself on many things but on torture I have not known the boundary between what is torture and what isn't torture. I know the NRA tie these people (rebels, etc.) when they catch them. They tie their hands backwards. I am now being told that is torture. It is the traditional method.

 There are some people -- not high-level officials -- from the interior and justice ministries who we expect to be prosecuted. Different kinds of torture happened, from beating to mental torture. These people had no right to torture anybody.

 Once you have taken your tax-free lump sum, the remaining 75 per cent of your fund will be treated differently on death. If you die before you take your cash, your pension fund passes to your dependants as a lump sum subject to income tax on death. But if you die after taking the 25 per cent cash, the remaining 75 per cent in your pension fund would only be accessible as a lump sum subject to 35 per cent tax or as a regular tax-free income through an annuity.
