Sudan: Government on the Defensive Over Relocations

Sudan’s government has vehemently denied claims by the United Nations that it is forcibly relocating internally displaced persons from camps in the strife torn western region of Darfur. "It is the responsibility of a country to relocate its internally displaced persons. We have not violated any international law," the country’s minister of humanitarian affairs, Ibrahim Mahmoud Hamid, told journalists at a press briefing held in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi, Tuesday.
