RSF fighters accused of ransacking homes, arrests
|
[SUDANTRIBUNE] The paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have launched a series of arrests targeting residents of Tuti Island, located in the center of Khartoum on the Nile River, multiple sources told Sudan
 ...a Moslem country located in the Horn of Africa. It is noted for its affinity for rule by ex- or current generals, its holy men, and for the oppression of the native Afro population by its Arab conquerors. South Sudan, populated mostly by the natives, split off from Sudan proper, which left North and South Darfur to be oppressed by the guys with turbans...
Tribune on Monday.
Local area community leaders have been detained for about two weeks now.
Residents interviewed by Sudan Tribune claimed in areas under RSF control, the paramilitary group is engaged in a campaign of intimidation and violence, including killings, property looting, and restrictions on food and medicine supplies.
These tactics are allegedly aimed at forcing residents to leave their homes.
"The RSF initially summoned island leaders, but the situation escalated into arrests," a statement from Tuti citizens received by Sudan Tribune on Sunday reads.
"Other leaders were taken from their homes," it added.
These developments follow a reported rape incident on Eid al-Fitr involving a young woman and an RSF member. A subsequent community meeting to condemn the act reportedly angered the RSF, who have maintained control of the area since the conflict began and imposed a siege that restricts movement.
In the one past year, however, residents have reportedly attempted to negotiate with the RSF to allow passage for medical emergencies and essential supplies.
