About this episode
The medical charity, Medecins Sans Frontieres, has told the BBC that cases of sexual violence in Haiti have tripled in the last four years. One in five victims are under the age of eighteen. With gangs now controlling nearly all of the capital, Port au Prince, violence and insecurity are worsening. So far this year, more than four thousand people have been killed. A BBC team talking to survivors in the capital found women and children were the most affected by systematic rape, murder and arson.Also in the programme: an American university agrees to a settlement with the Trump administration; and the death of a global wrestling icon.(Photo: A damaged house stands after gangs torched homes in a residential area in Furcy, Haiti.
