Abstract

ln the course of this research paper incidence of sexual slavery, sexual violence and rape during times of war will be examined. The incidence where systematic rape is seen as a weapon of war designed to exterminate a particular ethnic group will be highlighted. lt will be argued that systematic rape can be suitably addressed as a form of ethnic cleansing and a form of genocide within the ambit of international human rights law
