HUDO Centre Date: 16th June 2021 No. H.K/UA/09/021 URGENT APPEAL DEATHS AND CAUSALITIES OVER TRIBAL FIGHTS IN KOLOGI, SUDAN Since 10th June 2021, the security situation in Kologi deteriorated due to conflicts between Kawahla and Dar Ali/ Hawazma tribes that led to murders and injuries of people. This happened when security organs were present but could not intervene. On 10th June 2021, Mr. Osman Hamad and Mr. Khaleil Ali were shot dead by unknown people while they were on their way traveling from Gadier to Kao. Their tribesmen (Kawahla) suspect that the two had been killed by members of Dar Ali. On 12th June 2021, a tractor driver from Kawahla tribe was assaulted and his tractor with its trailer was confiscated by Dar Ali tribal group at a place called Alshabaka near Kologi. His tribesmen later managed to bring back the confiscated items. On 13th June 2021, Mr. Elfadil Ali Gargar (from Dar Ali tribe) was killed at Gerami market of Kologi by someone of Kawahla-tribe. In retaliation, the same day Mr. Mudathir Hasab-Elnabi (from kawahlatribe) was killed at Almajid neighbourhood of Kologi by Dar Ali tribesmen. On 14th June 2021, some of Kawahla tribesmen burnt two houses of Dar Ali tribe families. The same day, members of Kawahla tribe shifted (moved) their families from Kologi to Gadier and other places as precautions where they have majority of their kinsmen (tribe). On 15th June 2021, a group of armed people of Dar Ali/ Hawazma tribe gathered from different areas and invaded Almajid neighbourhood and burnt many of their houses while intensively firing on air. On their way back at Gardood Toro, they shot dead two Kawahla people (Mr. Eisa Hussein Elzain and Mr. Abdu-Elgawee) and injured other three (Mr. Gebrail Elbashir, Mr. Elsheikh Abass and Mr. Ahmed Yagoub). The injured are currently under medical care at Talodi hospital. These incidents happened but police and military in Kologi did not intervene yet they were present. HUDO Centre is very concerned about the situation of civilians in conflict areas and calls upon:    Sudan government to urgently solve the tribal conflict and the insecurity situation in Kologi Sudan government to ensure the rule of law, safety of people and their properties. Sudan government to hold account the security committee in South Kordufan State.  Sudan government to dissolve the government militias and disarm people with unlicensed firearms.
