This is a sad story about an Ethiopian Air Force officer, Captain Teshome Tenkolu, who was forced to spend two years in underground jails by the regime of the Tigrean Peoples Liberation Front (Woyanne). When he was released after two years, he was told that he is innocent and that his country needs him now. They asked him to return to the air force as a pilot, which gave him a chance to escape to a neighboring country with an air force plane.
Captain Teshome is currently residing in a foreign country as a political refugee. Click here to read the full story: Amharic – pdf, 33pp.
