The Inter-American Court of Human Rights has found Peru guilty of the torture of trans woman Azul Rojas Marín back in 2008, in a landmark case.
It was the first time the court had ruled on the torture of an LGBTQ person. In 2008, Marín was detained by Peruvian police in the town of Casa Grande.
Police stripped her and hit and raped her with a truncheon. Her legal team, Redress, also say she was verbally abused for her sexual orientation and robbed of her belongings.
