Gya: Killing is a rush

Death squad members used to joke about their hits at all-night parties says a witness who claims to have been close to the group.

The person says they are willing to identify the men, including serving members of the police force, who were part of the group dedicated to extinguishing criminals.

They also say they can volunteer what they know about the group, but do not believe the police force can be trusted, since some of its senior members are among those embroiled in the allegations. The informant is one of a few persons who have come forward with information about the group, which is said to have been responsible for several executions between August 2002 and December 2003.
