Summary
Description10th May 1952 - This Horror Must End.jpg |
English: British Royal Marine poses with two decapitated heads during the Malayan Emergency.
This photograph was first published on the 10 May 1952, by the British Communist newspaper the Daily Worker (Morning Star), in a frontpage article titled "This Horror Must End". This article was a response to British government claims that similar headhunting photographs previously published by the Daily Worker depicted isolated incidents. The heads show signs of torture, as many of the teeth are missing. The decapitation of suspected socialists and pro-independence fighters was a common practice by British allied forces during the Malayan Emergency, typically done by Iban headhunters hired by British forces. |
