A military court in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is expected to deliver a verdict in the case of dozens of soldiers accused of taking part in a mass rape two years ago. Victims accuse the soldiers of raping 130 women in the town of Minova in November 2012. Hundreds of thousands of people are raped in the DRC every year but perpetrators rarely stand trial. Al Jazeera's Malcolm Webb reports from Minova.
