HUDO got reliable information that, the detainees were transferred to El-Obeid (North Kordufan State) MI custody except Adam Aldaw Alkhairi who is still held at Abu-Kershola MI custody. All of them are detained in bad conditions and are undergoing inhuman treatment with no access to family visits or lawyers contact. HUDO is very concerned about their detention and calls upon;      Sudan government to allow family and lawyers visits Sudan government to hold MI members dealing in such a way accountable The MI authorities to ensure that the detainees are not subjected to torture or any ill-treatment. The military authorities to stop arresting civilians and to release the current detainees or to send them to the courts of law if there is any recognized case to answer. Sudan government should lift the state of emergency imposed on the conflict areas. More information The state of emergency status in the conflict states enhanced MI to arrest civilians in that many people suffer ill-treatment and torture. In South Kordufan the arrest happens mostly in the Eastern Region for instance; 1. On 11th April 2017, retired teacher Mr. Alsamani Osman Mahmoud, 50 years old, was arrested by MI at a weekly market in Al-Abbasiya.
