Article Abstract:

France must take responsibility for the rapes committed by its soldiers in Algeria, according to Mohamed Garne, who was conceived after his mother was raped by French soldiers in south-west Algeria in 1959. He believes that his physical and mental problems are attributable to the beatings his mother suffered before he was born.
