Video:South African Rape Survery

south african rape survery


article submitted by flynn.

one in four south african men questioned in a survey said they had raped someone, and nearly half of them admitted more than one attack.

the study, by the country's medical research council, also found three out of four who admitted rape had attacked for the first time during their teens.

it said practices such as gang rape were common because they were considered a form of male bonding.

the mrc spoke to 1,738 men in kwazulu-natal and eastern cape provinces.

the research was conducted in both rural and urban areas and included all racial groups.

using an electronic device to keep the results anonymous, the study found that 73% of those who admitted rape said they had carried out their first assault before the age of 20.

almost half who said they had carried out a rape admitted they had done so more than once.

one in 20 men surveyed said they had raped a woman or girl in the last year.

professor rachel jewkes of the mrc, who carried out the research, told the bbc's world today programme: "the absolute imperative is we have to change the underlying social attitudes that in a way have created a norm that coercing women into sex is on some level acceptable.

"we know that we have a higher prevalence of rape in south africa than there is in other countries.

"and it's partly rooted in our incredibly disturbed past and the way that south african men over the centuries have been socialised into forms of masculinity that are predicated on the idea of being strong and tough and the use of force to assert dominance and control over women, as well as other men."

she added that all the victims in the main survey were said to be women, but participants were also interviewed about male rape.

the study found that one in 10 men said they had been raped by other men.

some 3% of the men interviewed said they had coerced a man or a boy into sex.

the participants were also tested for hiv and the authors of the survey were surprised that men who had raped were not more likely to test positive for the virus.

mbuyiselo botha, from the south african men's forum, which campaigns for women's rights, told the bbc's focus on africa programme that any view of women as "fair game" had to be challenged.

mr botha, a father of two girls himself, said: "i think that yes, the figures are that high and for us, for me in particular, that is a very sad state of affairs.

"it means that we continue in south africa to be one of the highest capitals of rape in the world.

"i don't think it's cultural per se; i think it has to do with how a lot of us men worldwide were raised. the issues of dominance against women, issues of inequality, are pervasive and you find them throughout the world."

south africa's government has been repeatedly criticised for failing to address the country's rape epidemic.

a recent trade union report said a child was being raped in south africa every three minutes with the vast majority of those cases going unreported.

Video:African Prince Jailed For Drug Smuggling

african prince jailed for drug smuggling

an african prince who tried to smuggle cocaine concealed inside onions into the uk has been jailed for 12 years.

prince adegbenie olateru-olagbegi, 55, thought the onion odour would hide his cache, worth £163,000, as he arrived at heathrow airport from lagos, nigeria.

he also packed shrimps and other pungent dried fish in his luggage - but failed to put off a drugs sniffer dog which smelled the drugs as the prince walked through the nothing to declare channel.

he denied all knowledge of the 17 hollowed-out onions containing 3.21kg of cocaine found in his luggage.

he had had more luck at customs in lagos, where he was waived through by customs officials.

sentencing him at snaresbrook crown court in london on tuesday, recorder farouk ahmed said: "you took advantage of your good character and high social standing in nigeria to cause nigerian customs to waive you through."

the prince's barrister, gideon cammerman, said the prince had been a "simple courier".

the prince denied all knowledge of the cocaine in his luggage.

however, mr ahmed said: "a man of your very considerable standing...and with your connections in high places in nigeria, is highly unlikely to have been carrying these drugs for someone else and certainly not for some small reward. you were not acting as some hapless drugs mule."

the prince was arrested in march this year and convicted of smuggling on 1 september following an eight-day trial at middlesex guildhall crown court in london.

he told his trial that his father is king to 450,000 subjects in owo in southern nigeria and that he has 149 siblings.

he had been involved in anti-drug work in nigeria, run for office, and been a director of several companies, the court heard. he was also involved with several organisations which promoted good behaviour and christian values among young men in nigeria. his lawyer said he had faced "public pillory" in nigeria since his arrest.
