Outrage over viral rape video

Protesters demonstrate outside the Roodepoort Magistrate's Court on Thursday, 19 April 2012 where suspects accused of gang raping a Soweto teenager appeared. The men and boys, who matched the descriptions of the rapists seen in a video recording of the attack, were arrested in Dobsonville earlier in the week. The video of the rape of the 17-year-old girl went "viral" on the internet. The girl went missing on March 21 and was found in a man's house in Braamfischerville on Wednesday.Picture: Werner Beukes/SAPA
