A member of the National Intelligence and Security Services in Ed Daein in East Darfur has been killed, allegedly by members of his lover’s family. Four suspects have been detained.

Witnesses reported that Eisa El Mulla, a member of the security services, was found dead this week. The officials investigating the death examined El Mulla’s mobile phone and found that he had had contact with a woman living to the north of the El Sikka Hadeed district.

Investigators explained that when they confronted the woman, she admitted that she was having an affair with the deceased, and that he had been with her at her house when he was attacked by four of her relatives.

The police then arrested four men who reportedly confessed to killing El Mulla.
