In this photo taken Jan. 9, 2014 and released by the Commission on Human rights in Manila Tuesday, Jan. 28, 2014, a "wheel of torture" is placed on the post at an undisclosed police safe house in Laguna province in south of Manila, Philippines. Philippine police officers played a "wheel of torture" game to have fun and punish criminal suspects during interrogations, including bouts of punching named after boxing star Manny Pacquiao, human rights officials and activists said Tuesday. Under the game, detainees, mostly suspected drug traffickers, were punched if the "torture wheel" stopped at "20 seconds Manny Pacman," Pacquiao's nickname, or hung upside down if it stopped at a punishment called "30-second bat," Amnesty International said. The London-based rights group called the practice despicable. (AP Photo/Commission on Human Rights) NO SALES, EDITORIAL USE ONLY
