The Sudanese Army is tormenting people to death, says the right group

A prominent Sudanese group on human rights has accused the army and security forces of the country to torment people to death and operating “Chambers of execution”.

The emergency lawyer group said it had documented hundreds of arrests in the capital Khartum. It states that in the “highest cases”, some captives later found dead with evidence of torture.

The Sudanese army regained the city from the Paravilian Forces for Rapid Support (RSF) in March, against which he was fighting a bitter civil war that killed tens of thousands in two years.

The army did not respond to the BBC’s request for a comment on Sunday.

Throughout the war, the emergency lawyer group documents atrocities from both the army and the RSF.

In a statement on the social media platform X, emergency lawyers said they had observed “dangerous escalation in violations”.

Some detainees have been arrested randomly and taken to major detention centers, according to the group.

“Their destinies range from the continuous retention of inhuman conditions, trials conducted by security agencies, which lack the most basic standards of justice, or release in poor health,” the statement said.

“In the least cases, some were found dead after being killed or declared dead as a result of torture.”

The use of torture is common during the depression of President Omar Al Bashir.

During the present war, it was found that RSF had abused and executed prisoners.

The independent international mission to establish facts about Sudan said in March that both countries are responsible for the “widespread model of arbitrary detention, torture and abuse of detainees”.

It says that both RSF and the army used “rape and other forms of sexual abuse, arbitrary and detention, as well as torture and poor treatment.”

The fight has caused one of the world’s tallest humanitarian crises – 12 million people have been forced by their homes and the hunger has been declared in parts of the country.

Last week, doctors of medical charity without borders (MSF) stated that the war had nourished the worst of the cholera fire that the country had been watching for years.

In the last year, there have been nearly 100,000 cases of the disease and 2470 deaths.
