Tears in the Congo: Victims of Sexual Violence
After a calm but rather emotional testimony by a seven-year-old Elizabeth Nabuloho, center, her defense lawyer at left lays his hand on her. With a trembling voice, she said she was raped by Jackson, the man standing second from right, who was a tenant of her mother's house. "He said he would hit me if I told anyone about this," she said to the judges. Her mother kept her underwear with blood stains, but there was no way to prove it in a scientific way in the Congo. Jackson, along with his lawyer, denied the charges.
