Ivan Aroozoo, Clement Louis Marie Monteiro, Victor R. Grosse, Edward de Souza and many others of ‘D’ Eurasian Company of the Singapore Volunteer Corps were interned in Japanese prison camps where brutal beatings were part of a daily ritual.
Some prisoners were beaten with iron bars, brass rods, wet knotted ropes, belts with buckles — anything that could cause more grievous hurt than bare knuckles.
To intensify the experience, victims were sometimes hung by their thumbs during the barrage of blows, or were forced to kneel on sharp pieces of iron or wood. They were beaten by until they passed out, and when they came to, it would start all over again. The beatings sometimes lasted for 55 hours in a row, and the result was a pulp of fractured bone and bloody ripped flesh that left the victims unrecognizable.
