N2  - In recent years, large numbers of South African children have been the target of state-sanctioned abuse, including imprisonment in adult gaols. In spite of the restrictions on the gathering and dissemination of information in South Africa, reports from diverse sources have provided evidence that detainees as young as 11 years of age are subjected to unsanitary and crowded prison conditions, near-starvation diets, intimidation and torture. The immediate and potential long-term effects of this political abuse of children should be of great concern to the medical community.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
