The 2nd prize Spot News Single by Emin Ozmen, Turkey, shows opposition fighters regularly launched operations to seize government informants after dark. Two informants were captured, declared guilty under interrogation, and tortured throughout the night; tired soldiers had to be replaced so the torture could continue. After 48 hours, the captives were released in Aleppo, Syria, July 31, 2012.
