The Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North under the leadership of Abdelaziz El Hilu (SPLM-N El Hilu) has accused the Sudanese Military Intelligence of liquidating nine young graduates in the area of Kuek in South Kordofan, on Thursday. The movement considers what happened to be \u201cexplicit racist targeting\u201d, and vowed to punish the perpetrators of this crime no matter how long it will take. It considered it a continuation of the army\u2019s approach in implementing the scorched earth policy and crimes against humanity, including ethnic cleansing and genocide in the Nuba Mountains region.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement to Radio Dabanga on Friday, the SPLM-N El Hilu accuses Military Intelligence in South Kordofan of detaining nine young men and two young women from the Kega Luban area near Kuek, all of whom were recent university graduates, under the pretext of allegations that they were \u201ccollaborating with the rebel movement\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement alleges that the military intelligence \u201ctortured some of them to death\u201d, and said that those who were killed \u201cwere all graduates of Sudanese universities from the Nuba Kega Luban tribe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The SPLM attributed the army\u2019s targeting of civilians \u201cto compensate for its repeated losses and defeats<\/a>\u201d and vowed that \u201cthe perpetrators of this crime will not escape punishment, whether on the long or short term\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Emergency Follow-up Committee of the Nuba Alliance in Kuek also reported about the incident. \u201cMilitary Intelligence committed a crime against humanity by detaining dozens of civilians, especially young academics, after the SPLM attacked the area during the past two days,\u201d the alliance said in a statement on Thursday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe detentions were carried out under the pretext of collaborating with the SPLM-N,\u201d the statement said and confirmed that the following young academics were tortured to death: Ramadan El Bashari, Shawgi Mukhtar, Abutalib Suleiman, Hiba Abdallah, Hasan Awad, Hasabo Abdallah, Atef Hasan, Shams El Hag, Ibrahim Abujalha, Husein Sheikheldin, and Ahmed Shaga.
