Yes it is illegal but it happens in front of huge crowds. Be warned it IS graphic and heartbreaking.

Well done KA,
its always hard reading about this sort of human sickness, but more frustrating not knowing what to do from so far away.
yep! even if it does nothing we can know we tried right?! If we inundate the embassy with emails they'll at least know we don't think much of them... if we can get some higher profile people on board maybe it'll spread the word even further... a lot of it is awareness isn't it! If you're not aware you can't object in ANY way...
