Background
The Security situation throughout Darfur continues to deteriorate despite the signing of the Darfur Peace Agreement (DPA) between the Government of Sudan and one faction of the armed opposition group Sudan Liberation Army (SLA). All parties to the conflict continue to violate international human rights and humanitarian law with impunity. Despite honourable efforts, the African Union Mission in Sudan (AMIS) has neither the mandate nor resources necessary to effectively protect civilians.
SOAT calls on the Government of National Unity (GoNU) to immediately commit to taking all steps necessary to prevent attacks, threats, intimidations and any other form of violence against the people of Darfur.
In particular, SOAT calls on the GoNU to:
i) Commit to the deployment of an international peacekeeping mission in accordance with UN Security Council resolution 1706 (2006) adopted on August 31, 2006.
ii) Support the renewal and strengthening of the AMIS mandate until the effective deployment of an international peacekeeping mission
iii) Ensure that the incident is investigated immediately and that perpetrators are brought before an impartial tribunal and guaranteed procedural rights at all times
iv) End impunity for crimes committed by government forces and its proxy militias in Darfur
v) Guarantee respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms throughout the country in accordance with national laws and international human rights standards.
