A sheikh from Mershing, where the camps are located, told Radio Dabanga that the three victims were beaten with whips and had to be taken to Mershing hospital for treatment. He explained that the three displaced victims were riding donkey carts when the gunmen on camelback attacked them. In light of this, the sheikh asked UNAMID to send troops to the Mershing region to protect the displaced people. He explained that the attacks recur on a daily basis against the displaced and that the local police never pursue the attackers.
