- IDPs (Internally-Displaced-Persons) in the camps of Nertiti(West Darfur) expressed their support to the ICC (International Criminal Court) decision on February 3rd, Radio Dabanga reported this morning. The ICC appeal circuit has decided to accept the appeal of the Chief Prosecutor on his charges to the President of Sudan AlBashir with genocide crimes in Darfur.
The refugees in Eastern Chad also were very pleased with the ICC decision, Radio Dabanga reported in interviews with many refugees.
- IDPs in the largest camp in Kutum area (North Darfur) complained to Radio Dabanga that the Government of Sudan threatened them that the government will deal with them (the refugees) harshly if they don't evacuate the camp. A female leader in the camp told Radio Dabanga that few days ago the Mayor of Kutum with army and security forces came to the camp and told the refugees that they have two choices: Either to go back to their destroyed villages or to find homes and shelters in the city (Kutum). The mayor told them they have to evacuate the camp or the government will deal with them harshly and will dismantle the camp.
The female leader asked through the radio that the international community should intervene.
