some other Arab tribes were from the Malam PDF camp, about 120 km northeast of Nyala; and the Abu Gasim faction were stationed, along with regular Government forces, at Dobo Al Madrassa and Dobo Al Omda.
15. The pattern of past attacks and abductions in Jebel Marra suggests that victims in Deribat were targeted because the Fur community in Jebel Marra has been perceived as sympathizers of the SLA/Abdul Wahid or SLA/Abdul Shafi factions, which are considered two of the main anti-Darfur Peace Agreement (DPA) factions and mainly composed of Fur fighters and based in Jebel Marra.1
16. A full legal qualification of alleged violations and crimes committed in Deribat is reinforced if the attack is examined in the light of other similar attacks. A widespread and systematic pattern of abuse has been established where the Government fails to protect its civilians.
17. For example, a 25 year old Fur woman was interviewed by UNMIS Human Rights in March 2006 in Kalma camp in Nyala, South Darfur. She reported that she had been abducted from Brojo village near Rokero in East Jebel Marra in February 2004, describing her perpetrators as “Janjaweed”, some of whom were in camouflage and green uniforms and some in civilian clothes. The witness indicated that 63 women were abducted from East Jebel Marra and taken to Nyala airport and from there in a green aircraft to Alobeid, in Kordofan. Then they were taken to Al Nihud in Kordofan for eight months. “Women were divided among their attackers. I was given to a man called Sanosi Haroun. He later took me to Buram town south of Kadugli”. The women were kept as sex slaves. One woman who was abducted with her three year old daughter later gave birth to twins conceived from the abductor. She managed to escape in the beginning of 2006.
18. The Jebel Marra region has been the stronghold of SLA/Abdul Wahid and consequently has witnessed a multitude of attacks by Government forces and allied militias. This pattern of mass abduction which reportedly started at the beginning of the conflict in 2003/2004 still seems to be occurring. The African Union has no presence in Jebel Marra as they consider it unsafe leaving the civilian population unprotected and at the mercy of attackers. Furthermore, most International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs) pulled out of the area when the attacks started in November and December 2006. Only a few INGOs have returned to the area since then.
19. Furthermore, most areas in East Jebel Marra are inaccessible and women are further vulnerable due to the lack of security and humanitarian assistance. The women are unaware of what they should do in such incidents, including receiving medical treatment. Due to the insecurity in the vicinity, the isolation of this area also contributes to the gross violations of human rights which remain unreported.
Acts committed
20. According to the information gathered by UNMIS Human Rights during its interviews, a series of violations have been committed that constitute both violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law. Some of these may also constitute war crimes.
21. Rape: sexual violence is prohibited under the prohibition of torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. If rape, sexual slavery, or any other form of sexual violence of comparable gravity are committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack directed against civilians, the above-listed forms of sexual violence can constitute a crime against humanity, and potentially fall within the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC). Committing rape, sexual slavery or any other form of sexual violence also constituting a serious violation of common article 3 of the Geneva Conventions in the course of a non-international armed conflict is a war crime pursuant to the Statute of the ICC.
1 There are currently three SLA factions controlling Jebel Marra: SLA/Abdul Shafi (non-DPA signatory) controls mainly areas north of Jebel Marra, including Deribat Town and the villages north of Deribat. SLA/Abdul Wahid (non-DPA signatory) controls mainly south-western Jebel Marra, including Feina, Lieba, Gobo, Saboon-AlFagur, Gorlanj-banj, Torontonga, Golol, Kutorum, Baldong, and Golol; SLA/Abu Gasim (Government ally) controls mainly the eastern Jebel Marra area.
