The medical charity, Medecins Sans Frontieres, has told the BBC that cases of sexual violence in Haiti have tripled in the last four years. One in five victims are under the age of eighteen.

The BBC has gained rare access to the Haitian capital Port-au-Prince, where gangs now control 90% of the city.
