Rape

A female informant on an undercover drug buy was allegedly raped in this Alexandria, La., house, shown Sept. 8, 2022, while her law enforcement handlers left her unmonitored in January 2021. The ranking officer in the operation, recently retired, told AP: “We’ve always done it this way. She was an addict and we just used her as an informant like we’ve done a million times before. Looking back, it’s easy to say, ‘What if?’” (AP Photo / Gerald Herbert)

In this Wednesday, Nov. 22, 2017, photo, F, 22, who says she was raped by members of Myanmar's armed forces in June and again in September, is photographed in her tent in Kutupalong refugee camp in Bangladesh. The use of rape by Myanmar's armed forces has been sweeping and methodical, the AP found in interviews with 29 Rohingya Muslim women and girls now in Bangladesh. They were interviewed separately, come from a variety of villages in Myanmar and now live spread across several refugee camps in Bangladesh. The military has denied its soldiers raped any Rohingya women. (AP Photo/Wong Maye-E)
