{UAH} Rape and murder of a blind woman, Kitgum town

 Rape and murder of a blind woman, Kitgum town, Acholi, 7 October 2003    One of the most hideous acts of rape and murder was committed on October 7,   2003 when six armed government soldiers raped and murdered Ms Betty Alum, a   blind teacher at St Theresa School in Kitgum town, northern Uganda. After   raping her the soldiers bayoneted her chest, forced her underclothes and bra   through her mouth with a stick towards her stomach and then smashed her head   with a grinding stone. The incident took place less than 50 metres from an army   detachment. Later the soldiers who committed the heinous act were merely   transferred to other army posts. In effect they had accomplished their mission   of an officially sanctioned policy of brutalizing the local Acholi people.
