Hundreds of women inmates were raped and burnt alive at a prison in Congo's Goma during chaos after Rwanda-backed rebel groups entered the city last week. Deputy head of UN peacekeeping force based in Goma, Vivian van de Perre, said that while several thousand men managed to escape from the prison, the area reserved for women was set on fire.
