The spokesman for JEM, Jibril Adam Bilal, reported to Radio Dabanga that the head of JEM, Dr Jibril Ibrahim, ordered the release of the captives, Muhanna Abdelrahman Muhanna and Idris Abouda Mohamed. On Monday they were handed over to the advisor of the Amir of the Misseriya tribe in the region, Omda Badawi El Hawari. “The release of the captives came within in the framework of the reinstatement of communication between JEM and social institutions in Darfur and Kordofan, and in the whole of Sudan, as well as to disprove the lies by the government saying that the armed rebel movements do not have any SAF captives,” Bilal noted.
