The Prosecution alleged that the FPLC systematically enlisted and conscripted children in large numbers, provided them with military training and later used them to participate actively in hostilities. Girls were also subjected to rape and sexual violence although these acts were not charged. Girls who were conscripted and enlisted were also used by the FPLC commanders to carry out domestic work, and to work as nurses.
