The Sudan Liberation Movement led by Mini Minnawi (SLM-MM) strongly denies allegations made by the commissioner of Dar el-Salam locality in North Darfur. The commissioner claims that the movement launched an attack on two trade convoys on Monday, 3 December.<\/p>\n
It was reported that the attack resulted in the death of one woman and the injuring of at least 10 other civilian passengers.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Radio Dabanga, SLM-MM accused pro-government militias of carrying out the attack on the convoys. Adam Saleh Abker, the movement’s spokesman, condemned the attack and described it as a ‘barbaric and brutal act carried out by pro-government militias for which the National Congress Party should be held responsible’.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, the spokesman described the accusations of Dar el-Salam’s commissioner as ‘false’ and ‘disgraceful’.<\/p>\n
The commissioner of Dar el-Salaam, Al Hadi Ahmed Hassan, accuses the SLM-MM of launching an attack on two trade convoys. The commissioner explained to Radio Dabanga that the first convoy was on its way from Dar el-Salaam to El-Fasher, while the second convoy was on its way back to Dar el-Salaam.<\/p>\n
