Tropical woodland in outskirts of Rwanda doomed to receive shocking treatment (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rainforest

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'tropical woodland' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'in outskirts of rwanda doomed to receive shocking treatment' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'in' is present in the answer.
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rainforest that I've seen before include "The Amazon, for example" , "geographical feature" , "Tropical jungle" , "Luxuriant expanse" , "area of the Amazon?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
