00:00I do not remember reading or seeing an instance where a democratic state, a country, a modern nation-state, shot at people to blind them.
00:09We have to find a way to stop this.
00:28Were you participating in a protest?
00:30No, just walking down the street.
00:32You were not even part of the protest?
00:34No.
00:35So, you were doing your own thing.
00:37I went to see what was going on on the street.
00:39What happened next?
00:41They started shooting pellets.
00:43Pellets? To drive away the crowd?
00:45Yes.
00:46How are your eyes now?
00:48I can't see anything.
00:50I went to the bus station to prepare for the exam.
01:08There was a sniper.
01:10He was coming towards the gate.
01:12I opened the gate and saw him.
01:15He had a gun in his hand.
01:17He shot me in the head.
01:19I fell on the ground.
01:45I was treated not even as a normal human being.
