A displaced farmer was shot dead by gunmen near Nierteti in Central Darfur on Thursday. In a separate incident in the area, a woman was seriously wounded.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking to Radio Dabanga, Adam Okar said that a group of gunmen opened fire on Mohamed Abdelghani, while he was returning from his farm to the Nierteti Southern Camp. He was killed instantly.<\/p>\n

The incident was reported to the police of Nierteti, who took the body to the morgue in the town's hospital.<\/p>\n

The source also reported that Fatima El Tahir was seriously injured in an assault by unknown armed men in the area of Gurni, near Nierteti.<\/p>\n

In protest against the recurrent attacks in the area, activists began a sit-in in Nierteti on June 28<\/a>.  <\/p>\n

A week later, a high-level government delegation from Khartoum visited the protest vigil<\/a>, and pledged to implement their “just demands”. It was agreed that a number of officials would be dismissed, and a joint security force will secure the agricultural season.<\/p>\n

The leaders of the sit-in decided to lift their protest<\/a> on July 15. “We all hope that the signing of a comprehensive peace agreement will bring security and stability to the region,” a member of the sit-in committee told this station.<\/p>\n
