Since the successful prosecution of a rapist in Kakata, Margibi County, at the end of March 2008, the number of rape cases brought to the police and ARC Liberia in Kakata has noticeably declined. The case, which involved a 52-year-old perpetrator and a 12-year-old survivor, was successfully prosecuted thanks to a partnership between the local law enforcement and justice systems, the American Refugee Committee (ARC), and FIND, with the support of the American government.
