South Africa gang-rape suspects head to court
Seven of the eight suspects who are accused of taking part in a brutal videotaped gang-rape of a teenager will appear in a South African court Wednesday to ask for bail.
It is unlikely that the suspects, accused in a crime that has shocked many in South Africa, will be granted bail, officials have said.
An eighth suspect, a man who was found with the victim, is scheduled to appear in court on May 4, court officials said.
The images of the assault of a 17-year-old girl, believed to be mentally ill, swept across the Internet last week and touched a nerve in South Africa.
The shocking footage shows the girl pleading for her attackers to stop, and it has some activists saying it is an example of the country's problem with rape.

Unfortunately, this is common in Africa. Women are terrorized and abused on a scale we cannot imagine.Even girl children are not exempt.I'm glad this is being called to the attention of the world.
Huh?
Until mental illness is dealt with world-wide in an intelligent manner, we will always have stories like this.
Good!
This is sickening!
I sincerely hope that that they throw the book at these nasty criminals!
Didn't South Africa used to be a viable functioning society, productive and secure, a few years ago? Oh that's right. That's back when they had a twenty percent caucas!on minority rule.
Sort of like Rhodesia was a viable functioning society, exporting to the world, until there was a color change and now it's a starving violent failed state, Zimbabwe. But the libs feel good about their results!
Aw, hi, jacker.
Cecil, apartheid had it's day. It's over. Live in the now.
