Nouman's life settled into a pattern. She would be arrested, thrown into prison for a few months of torture, then forced to spend a month in the mental hospital. She would be released for a few months, and then the cycle would begin again. Looking back, she has difficulty remembering the chronology and duration of her incarcerations.

Both men served with the Red Berets, a special unit of Serbian state security linked to war crimes and, now, to dozens of political murders under the Milosevic regime. Legija was "a killer paid by the state," according to Kandic, and had been running a drug trafficking and extortion ring out of the tiny Belgrade suburb of Zemun. The group had infiltrated...
