Web surfers around the world are posting, sharing and tweeting an Internet-based campaign aimed at bringing an elusive African rebel leader to justice.
Joseph Kony, head of the Lord's Resistance Army or LRA, has long been wanted by the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity. Human rights activists say the paramilitary group has killed thousands in routine massacres and forced scores of African children to serve as child soldiers or sex slaves.
The Kony 2012 campaign, orchestrated by non-profit group Invisible Children, aims to raise support for his arrest through social media.
