“ war-time rape must be seen as a crime against the personhood of a woman and not against the honor bestowed upon her by her society or family.  Rape is an attack against her bodily integrity, her autonomy, her very dignity as a human being.  It degrades her both as an individual and as a member of a collective”  (Veneracion-Rallonza 2006)
Without such recognition, rape will continue to be a crime committed in a culture  of impunity... ,[object Object],[object Object]
