 The incidence of rape has led to the country being referred to as the "rape capital of the world".One in three of the 4,000 women questioned by the Community of Information, Empowerment and Transparency said they had been raped in the past year.More than 25% of South African men questioned in a survey published by the Medical Research Council (MRC) in June 2009 admitted to rape; of those, nearly half said they had raped more than one person.
