From Times Wire Reports

U.S. military officials said a U.S. soldier serving in Bosnia was raped and that they suspected Czech peacekeepers. However, Czech officials insisted that the woman consented to have sex with two Czech soldiers. The attack was reported to have occurred in central Bosnia on Saturday. It was the first reported rape complaint involving the NATO-led mission. The woman was evacuated Sunday to a combat support hospital in Taszar, a southwestern Hungarian town where the Americans have set up a supply and logistics base.
