Government troops from Rwanda sodomized a pygmy tribe leader in front of his wife and children, then raped the family in front of him. When questioned about the incident, the troops said they sodomized the pygmy in hopes of gaining supernatural powers.
The leader was stripped and sodomized in front of his wife, their children, and his daughter-in-law. The children were then stripped and raped in front of the family. The raping of children and the elderly in the region occurs on a regular basis. The armed forces in the region are solely responsible and some say they are the same ones responsible for the 1994 genocide in Rwanda.
Pygmies have been targeted for abuse by these soldiers in the past, as well.
