Spain's 'Wolf Pack' Jailed for Sex Attack

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Spain's 'Wolf Pack' Jailed for Sex Attack

Five men jailed for gang-raping an 18-year-old in Pamplona

We hear from Spain where five men accused of gang-raping an 18-year-old woman have been convicted of sexual abuse but acquitted of the more serious crime of rape, in a case that has sparked a national outcry. According to a police report, the men belonged to a WhatsApp group called "La manada" (wolf pack). 

And we report on football star Lionel Messi's ongoing efforts to trademark his name. Also we go to Zimbabwe after thousands of striking nurses return to work.
