Thread: S. Sudan lets soldiers rape women in lieu of wages: UN

South Sudan lets fighters rape women as payment, the UN rights office said Friday, describing the country as "one of the most horrendous human rights situations in the world."

"The assessment team received information that the armed militias... who carry out attacks together with the SPLA (South Sudanese army) commit violations under an agreement of 'do what you can and take what you can,'" the rights office said in a new report.

"Most of the youth therefore also raided cattle, stole personal property, raped and abducted women and girls as a form of payment," the report added.

In a report, the UN human rights office painted a harrowing picture of civilians suspected of supporting the opposition, including children, being burned alive, suffocated in shipping containers, hanged from trees and cut to pieces.

UN human rights chief Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein meanwhile warned that brutal rapes had been used systematically as "an instrument of terror and weapon of war."

"This is one of the most horrendous human rights situations in the world," he said in a statement.

After gaining independence from Sudan in 2011, South Sudan erupted into civil war in December 2013, setting off a cycle of retaliatory killings that have split the poverty-stricken, landlocked country along ethnic lines.

Please try and expand your research skills beyond wikipedia and yahoo news.

Sudan is divided, with the south and pro-government forces, such as the SPLA mentioned above, being Christian, and the north, muslim.

Sudan has an estimated population of 41.2 million, led by a Government of National Unity (GNU), whose mandate extends until scheduled elections in 2009. The government is composed of the National Congress Party (NCP), dominated by Islamists from the north and led by President Omar al-Bashir, and the SPLM, made up predominantly of Christians and practitioners of indigenous religions from the south and led by Vice President Salva Kiir. The CPA granted the NCP a majority in a northern assembly and GNU. The SPLM acts as the ruling party of the autonomous Government of Southern Sudan, established in October 2005. A referendum to determine whether the South will become an independent entity was granted under the CPA for 2011.
