location: Bentiu
notes: SPLA raped a number of women outside the Bentiu IDP camp on the day of the visit by the UN Independent Commission on Human Rights in South Sudan mid-November as well as a woman in Leer three days prior to their visit. The Commission denounced the use of rape as a tool used by armed groups and government forces for ethnic cleansing, having reached 'epic' proportions throughout the country since the renewed clashes in Juba in July.
