Evidence limits

The 2011–2014 record is supported across RFA, CHRD, Front Line Defenders, and UN reporting. No independently documented detention episode after March 2014 was located in the package. The 2026 current-custody classification is therefore presented only as the roster’s claim, not as evidence of a newly established detention event.
