The National Intelligence and Security Services (NISS) reacted by carrying out many arbitrary arrests targeting Nuba group and SPLM members all over Sudan. Most of the detainees have got no access to their families and lawyers. What had been documented by HUDO and other NGOs had not covered all the arrested people. As per now, there are some detainees missing. The information below is what HUDO could manage to get about detainees but, it is not the final one. Khartoum On 1st and 2nd - May 2013 in Omdurman mostly at Al Thawra areas 61 and 48, some people were arrested from their houses and others from the church and mosque while they were praying. • Mussa Zakaria Jujo, 40 years old, lawyer. • Mr. Ibrahim Hassan 45 years old, was arrested at the midnight 12:30 when the NISS came and knocked at the house gate, his son opened then they rushed in and arrested him.
