Dominik Engonge: Assassination, Torture, Running for Your Life

Dominik and his sister were sitting on the couch watching TV when four masked men forced their way in and executed their father. They tortured Dominik by beating him, firing rounds next to his ear, rupturing his eardrum, and stabbing him in the buttock. They dragged his sister into a room and raped her for 30 minutes and then threatened to kill them if they didn’t leave the country. How does one recover from such horrific experiences? He now lives as a refugee in Greece, but cannot find a stable job, since he doesn’t speak the language well.
