| DESPICABLE RAPIST BASTARDS! |

Something is rotten in the Congo!
GENEVA, Switzerland (Reuters)--updated 11:01 a.m.
EDT, Mon July 30, 2007 -- Extreme sexual violence
against women is pervasive in the Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC) and local authorities do
little to stop it or prosecute those responsible,
a U.N. investigator said on Monday.
A woman struggles to describe her rape by military
members. Health workers call rape an epidemic.
Rape and brutality against women and girls are
"rampant and committed by non-state armed groups,
the Armed Forces of the DRC, the National
Congolese Police, and increasingly also by
civilians", said Turkish lawyer Yakin Erturk.
"Violence against women seems to be perceived by
large sectors of society to be normal," she added
in a report after an 11-day trip to the
strife-torn country.
Erturk, special rapporteur for the United Nations
Human Rights Council on violence against women,
said the situation in South Kivu province, where
rebels from neighboring Rwanda operate, was the
worst she had ever encountered.
The atrocities perpetrated there by armed groups,
some of whom seemed to have been involved in the
1994 Rwandan massacres in which 800,000 people
were killed, "are of an unimaginable brutality
that goes far beyond rape," she said.
"Women are gang-raped, often in front of their
families and communities. In numerous cases, male
relatives are forced at gun point to rape their
own daughters, mothers or sisters," she said.
After rape, many women were shot or stabbed in the
genital area, and survivors told Erturk that while
held as slaves by the gangs they had been forced
to eat excrement or the flesh of their murdered
relatives.
Women who have been raped are systematically
rejected by their families and society.
Widespread sexual abuse in the various conflicts
racking the republic -- which last year held
elections hailed as marking a new era -- "seems to
have become a generalized aspect of the overall
oppression of women," Erturk said.
Her report followed charges from U.N. High
Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour last
week that soldiers and police used excessive
force, including summary executions, in quelling
opposition protesters in the west of the DRC
earlier this year.
In the central Equateur province, the police and
army often responded to civil unrest "with
organized armed reprisals that target the civilian
population and involve indiscriminate pillage,
torture and mass rape", the report found.
Although the DRC parliament outlawed sexual
violence in July 2006, "little action is taken by
the authorities to implement the law and
perpetrators continue to enjoy immunity,
especially if they wear the state's uniform,"
Erturk said.
Erturk said Congo's justice system was corrupt and
in "a deplorable state," while conditions in
prisons were "scandalous".
Senior army and police officers shielded their men
from prosecution, and when some were arrested they
escaped easily, probably "with the complicity of
those in charge."
