Darfuri Leader Reports Continuation of Government Reprisals

Mohamed Suleiman, a leader of the Darfuri community in the U.S., has been sending reports of violence in Sudan in the aftermath of the JEM attack in Khartoum.

Dear All,
Today Tuesday May 13th at around 1:00 pm the special forces ( Capital Troops) of Salah Gosh executed a Darfuri college student in the open on the spot, later they said his hair and skin color looked like those of the rebels. His body was riddled with bullets in front of people in Ombuddah, Omdurman. The security forces prevented condolences visits to his family home in Ombuddah, Omdurman.

Name of the victim: Mohamed Ahmed Ibrahim
Age: 24 years.
Occupation: Student at Omdurman Islamic University.
Residents : Ombuddah, Omdurman
Origin: Darfur, Nyala .

The Government of Sudan secured the support of Arab League on the JEM Attack. Egypt security forces started to detain Darfuris in Egyptian cities ( some JEM supporters and some just Darfuri students or refugees). Darfuris in Saudi Arabia and Arab Gulf Countries are in subdued mode and keeping low profile. This affected the flow of information from Khartoum to outside and from these countries. GoS send Security officials to Arab Countries to clamp down on Darfuri activists.

Will keep you posted.

 Mohamed Suleiman
