"JOSEPH KONY is one of the world's most vilified rebel leaders. He stands accused of brainwashing children across northern Uganda, turning the girls into sex slaves and the boys into prepubescent killers. His Lord's Resistance Army has terrorised a corner of Africa for nearly 20 years, killing tens of thousands, burning down huts of villages and hacking off their lips.
That Kony, whose followers believe he is a prophet, rarely appears in public has only added to his brutal mystique. But on Sunday, he came out of the bush. At a camp deep in the forest on the Congo-Sudan border, Kony met Jan Egeland, the United Nations undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief."
