DR Congo Rapes 'Defy Belief', Says UN -- BBC
The UN's human rights chief has said the "scale and viciousness" of mass rapes in DR Congo "defy belief", as a report into the attack was released.
Navi Pillay said that, even for the region, the incident stood out because of the "extraordinarily cold-blooded and systematic way" it was carried out.
Some 300 people were raped by armed militia in the attack in August.
The incident was made worse by "subsequent failings" by UN peacekeeping forces, says Ms Pillay.
