The sudden army torturing people to death, says a group of rights

An eminent Sudanese Human Rights group accused the country’s army and security forces of torturing people to death and exploiting “chambers of execution”.

The emergency lawyer group said he had documented hundreds of arrests in the capital Khartoum. He said that in the “worst cases”, some captives were then found dead with proofs of torture.

The Sudanese army resumed the city of the paramilitary forces of rapid support (RSF) in March, against which it was fighting against a bitter civil war which killed tens of thousands in two years.

The army did not respond to the request for comments from the BBC on Sunday.

Throughout the war, the group of emergency lawyers documented atrocities by the army and the RSF.

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

Some detainees were arrested at random and taken to major detention centers, according to the group.

“Their destiny varies from continuous detention in inhuman conditions, trials carried out by security agencies which do not have the most fundamental justice of justice or the release in poor health,” the statement said.

“In the worst cases, some were found dead after being killed or declared dead following torture.”

The use of torture was common during the oppressive reign of President Omar Al-Bashir.

Throughout the current war, the RSF has also proven to have abused and executed prisoners.

The United Nations International Independent International Mission for Sudan said in March that the two parties were responsible for “a generalized model for arbitrary detention, torture and ill -treatment of prisoners”.

He said the RSF and the army used “rape and other forms of sexual violence, arbitrary arrest and detention, as well as torture and ill -treatment”.

The fighting sparked one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world – 12 million people were forced from their home and famine was declared in some parts of the country.

Last week, medical charities without borders (MSF) said that the war had fueled the worst cholera epidemic that the country has seen for years.

There have been nearly 100,000 cases of illness and 2,470 deaths in the past year.
