Follow up on the joint allegation letter dated 15 August 2023 (AL OTH 101/2023) and your subsequent response dated 19 January 2024, in addition to the joint urgent appeal sent on 6 August 2024 (OTH 115/2024) and joint allegation letter sent on 15 August 2024 (OTH 116/2024) regarding the alleged serious human rights and humanitarian law violations in Sudan. In particular, we would like to bring to your attention new and deeply concerning information regarding the continued commission of serious human rights violations against women and children in Sudan from September 2024 to the present. Many violations are reportedly being committed by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), despite public commitments to address such abuses, including through directives under the command intended to guide the behavior of RSF personnel. The allegations brought to our attention include a broad pattern of sexual and gender-based violence, such as rape, sexual slavery, and forced marriage, as well as the denial of access to sexual and reproductive health services, the failure to protect and support survivors, the trafficking and abduction of women and children, enforced disappearances, torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, and extrajudicial killings.Alleged victims: - More details... |
