SUDAN Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid (m), aged 29, auditor
Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid was arrested at 2pm on 14 April by members of the national security forces whilst at work in United Industry in Khartoum North. He was allegedly taken to the offices of the National Security near Farouk cemetery in Khartoum for interrogation. He is being held in incommunicado detention, where he is at risk of torture or ill-treatment. Armed members of the security forces reportedly came to Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid's home two weeks prior to his arrest whilst he was away. They searched his house and took away some books. They returned regularly in order to question his family about his whereabouts. Detainees who have been arrested by the National Security have frequently been tortured and then transferred to a secret political wing of Kober Prison in Khartoum. They may be held for prolonged periods without access to lawyers or family and it is feared that Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid may suffer the same fate. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Please send appeals to arrive as quickly as possible, in English and Arabic or your own language: - expressing grave concern for the safety of Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid, who was detained by the Sudanese security forces on 14 April and has not been seen since; - calling on the authorities to immediately reveal the whereabouts of Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid and to give assurances that he will not be tortured or otherwise ill treated; - urging the authorities to allow Ammar Hassanain Abdel-Sid immediate and unrestricted access to his relatives, legal counsel and any medical aid he may need; - calling on the authorities to abide by its commitments under Article 9 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and either charge the detainee with a recognizably criminal offence and give him a prompt and fair trial in accordance with international standards or set him free immediately.

UA 103/03 Fear of torture or ill-treatment/ detention without charge
SUDAN Adam Ahmed Mohammed Guma' (m), aged 51, businessman Mohammed Ahmed Karama (m), aged 50, businessman Khalil Mohammed Din (m), aged 45, farmer Mohammed Tayrab (m), aged 40 Ishag Teimi (m) Yousif Sam (m) Adam Harun (m) Omer Hussein (m) Boos Al Zaghawy (m)
The nine men named above were detained without charge some time between 1 and 12 April. They are being held incommunicado at Shala prison near El Fasher town, North Darfur province, and may be at risk of torture or other ill-treatment.
The men were initially detained by security personnel in Kabkabia town, North Darfur province, before their transfer to Shala prison. Government security forces have secretly used torture against detainees suspected of supporting opposition political groups while in custody.
It is thought that the men, who come from the Fur and Zaghawa ethnic groups, may have been detained in connection with recent armed clashes between government forces and a new armed group operating in Darfur, calling itself the Sudan Liberation Army (SLA). The SLA claimed it had killed dozens of soldiers and seized their vehicles. The government has neither confirmed nor denied the claim.
Khalil Mohammed Din was previously arrested with other Fur community leaders by the security forces in May 2002, after groups of nomads attacked the village of Shoba and killed 17 people. He and other Fur detainees were released without charge in August 2002. He told Amnesty International delegates in Darfur that the detainees had been detained in poor conditions and had not even been interrogated.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Sudan Liberation Army has been fighting government forces since early February 2003. It accuses the government of keeping Darfur, a remote area that borders Chad in the western part of the country, under-developed and marginalized. Farming communities in the region, comprised of ethnic groups such as the Fur and the Zaghawa, have clashed regularly with cattle and camel herders over scarce water resources and pasture.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Please send appeals to arrive as quickly as possible, in Arabic or English or your own language: - expressing concern for the safety of Adam Ahmed Mohammed Guma, Mohammed Ahmed Karama, Khalil Mohammed Din, Mohammed Tayrab, Ishag Teimi, Yousif Sam, Adam Harun, Omer Hussein and Boos Al Zaghawy, detained between 1 and 12 April and currently being held without charge at Shala prison; - seeking assurances that the detainees will not be tortured or ill treated; - calling on the authorities to abide by its commitments under Article 9 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and either charge the detainees with a recognizable criminal offence and give them a prompt and fair trial in accordance with international standards or set them free immediately; - urging the authorities to allow the detainees immediate and unrestricted access to their relatives, legal counsel and any medical aid they may need.
