GOVERNMENT troops sodomised pygmies in March in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, believing they would gain supernatural powers, a regional rights group said.
"Some soldiers from the 85th Brigade sodomised three male pygmies to gain supernatural powers and protection in Kisa village in Walikale territory,'' the Human Rights League of the Great Lakes said.
"The village chief was stripped and (sodomised) in the presence of his wife, his children and daughter in-law.
"The children in turn were stripped and raped in front of their father."
It said armed groups in the region also abused the pygmies.
Elderly citizens and children were also being raped by the armed groups and wayward FARDC soldiers in eastern DRC, it added.
The pygmies live essentially as subsistence hunter-gatherers in the forests in the DRC's equatorial zones and have been targeted by militia groups in the past.
Among the armed groups roaming the eastern part of Congo are the Rwandan Hutu Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda rebels.
Some of its members are accused of being among the main perpetrators of Rwanda's 1994 genocide by Hutus against the Tutsi minority.
The United Nations and global human rights organisations have accused the FDLR of engaging in mass murder, rape and pillage of locals' property. |

I guess it would have been easy for troops packing heat to do something like that.
Making jokes about children getting arse-raped. I've fallen to a new low. :( |

| Seriously though, why is the media always giving third-world African countries such a bum rap? I know they have lots of pirates and wars and all, butt I'm sure they're doing their best with what they have. It's not like they want to be known as bottom achieving countries for the rest of their days. It's only when ugly issues like this rear their head that the media has sufficient ammunition to attack. |
