DRCONGO-CRIME-HEALTH-WOMEN-FILES
(FILES) This photo taken on November 12, 2009, shows a medical worker attending to a patient at the post-operative ward for rape victims at Panzi hospital in Bukavu, eastern DRCongo. An award-winning doctor, renowned for his work for women who have suffered sexual violence, was "evacuated" from a town in eastern DR Congo on October 27, two days after he narrowly escaped a murder attempt there, a close aide told AFP. Gynaecologist Denis Mukwege's whereabouts were not immediately known but another source said he had left Bukavu with his family. Bukavu, the capital of South Kivu province, will be brought to a standstill on Wednesday to protest against the attack and rampant violence in the town where at least four people have been killed over the last days, a public figure told AFP. An average 5,000 women, victims of rape mainly by rebel outfits holed-up in DRCongo, are received at the Panzi hospital centre where they are treated and rehabilitated. AFP PHOTO/Adia TSHIPUKU
