stockholm syndrome
On 23th august 1973 two criminals,one of them a jail fugitive,entered a bank shooting at air with the automatic machine guns and shouting at the employees:"the party has begun!" assaulters took three women and one man as hostages,attaching dynamite to their bodies and keeping them inside a safe for more than five days.

After the liberation,the hostages,who had been threatened and mistreated ,offered clear signs of loyalty to the kidnappers. During their captivity,they had developed a positive emotional attitude towards the aggressors,and they were convinced that the captors had protected them from the police.

Furthermore,at the trial,one of the captive women organised a fundraising compaign in the favour of the criminals.
This event led to the stockholm syndrome for the reaction of attraction towards the aggressors by mistreated,humiliated and captive people.
This situation happens almost most of the time.
