| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01  | Looks like some of you are going to have to do your baby raping somewhere else! ----------------------------------- South African president demands end to wave of baby rapes JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - President Thabo Mbeki used his New Year's message on Friday to call on South Africans to stop a wave of rapes of babies and children. "As the year came to its end, we concentrated on rape and in particular the rape of children and infants. This demands that everybody should be involved in fighting this horrible crime," he said in his annual address. "Rapes occur in our homes, they occur amongst relatives, they occur among people who know one another. We must make sure that indeed we break the silence with regard to this, that we report the wrongdoers to the police and make sure that the system of justice punishes these people appropriately." Though used to violence, South Africans were shocked by the spate of baby rapes late in 2001. Many were by men who believe that sex with a virgin will cure them of AIDS, anti-rape organisations say. An estimated one in nine South Africans carries the HIV virus which causes the disease, one of the highest infection rates in the world. Mbeki, who has drawn international criticism for questioning the link between HIV and AIDS, made only a passing reference to the virus, urging people to help fight theft and corruption within the public health system. He also said that South Africa would play a key role in resolving conflicts on the continent. "We have moved forward towards peace in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and during this coming year South Africa will be hosting the Inter-Congolese Dialogue, which will enable the Congolese people to take their country forward." More than two million people have died since the start of Congo's civil war in 1998. Mbeki noted that the first summit of the newly-founded African Union would be held in South Africa in 2002 -- the year the country assumes its presidency -- along with the World Summit for Sustainable Development. "All of these things demonstrate the confidence of the rest of the world in our country, in our people," he said. He congratulated workers and business people for supporting the economy, which he said had performed well despite the global slowdown.  Thank you to all the brave volunteers who brought us all together as a country, and thank you to those of you brave soldiers who will fight and have fought for our country. We are a free people because of your efforts. | ||||
