US soldiers accused of raping underage iraqis
by world wide views Tuesday, Jun. 10, 2003 at 12:41 AM

more scandal that has been missed by mainstream news

An Iraqi newspaper run by Sunni Muslims traded charges on
Monday with the United States-led occupation authority over
the alleged rape of two Iraqi girls by US soldiers, a claim
denied by the coalition.

According to the daily As-Saah, the girls, aged 14 and 15,
were talking to American soldiers in Suwaira, 180km south
of Baghdad, on Friday when the soldiers suggested they
accompany them to their camp to take pictures but then
collectively raped the pair.

As-Saah said one of the girls died after she was raped by
18 soldiers while the other was killed by her family. Editor
Naama Abderrazzak told AFP two of the daily's reporters
had talked to residents of the area and seen the bodies of the two girls.
