Sudan: Activists in arbitrary detention

Urgent - Sudan
Activists on arbitrary detention

The Arab Program for Human Rights Activists (APHRA) pursues with great concern the case of Mrs. Nahla Bashir Adam, works in Youth Association for Child Rights in Kurdufan. Nahla had been detained by the Sudanese Security Forces in south Darfur in December 12, 2008. However, since that time, Nahla hadn't subjected to a trail or accused of any charges. Moreover, no one knows where she exists even their lawyers or colleagues in human rights domain.

It's worthy to be noted, Nahla is suffering from chronic diseases that required continued and lasting medical care and thus her health condition is very critical.

In consequence of that, The Arab Program for Human Rights Activists (APHRA) expresses its great condemnation over the activist's unjustified detention that violates the article 9 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Meanwhile, the Arab Program denounces the purse of human rights activists as a result of the current complicated situation in Sudan.

Meantime, The Arab Program for Human Rights Activists (APHRA) lays complete responsibility of Nahla's critical health condition on the Sudanese Authorities over arresting her for four months without being subjected to trail or medications, the thing which would leads her to death.

Furthermore, the Program claims the Sudanese Authorities for an imminent and unconditional release of Nahla. In addition to perform an imminent investigation over the reasons behind her detention and to hold officials the complete responsibility over this violence.
