Sudan Protests: 51 detainees released, hundreds remain in custody as President Bashir declares a national state of emergency.
(5 March
2019) ACJPS has received information indicating that National Intelligence and
Security Services (NISS) has released 51 detainees arrested for their actual or
suspected involvement in the popular protests in Sudan. Those released include
14 journalists, 16 human rights defenders, 14 political activists, 2 doctors
and 5 students. They were detained in various prisons since protests broke out
on 19 December 2018 across Sudan.
In
February 2019, ACJPS documented the incommunicado detention 30 women , 116
political activists and 30 human rights
defenders by NISS since December 2018.
ACJPS remains concerned for the physical safety and well-being of those
who are still in detention, many of whom are being held incommunicado. Of
particularly concern is the safety and wellbeing of Mr Yousef Ali Alhuri (m), a
pharmacist who was arrested on 17 January 2019 from Wad-Madani in Aljazeera
state. According to reliable sources, Mr. Alhuri is suffering from a kidney
dysfunction allegedly caused by torture by NISS officials while in custody.
The
lack of access to lawyers and family members to the detainees, together with
the well-documented use by the NISS of torture and other forms of ill-treatment
against detainees, particularly whilst held in unknown locations, gives rise to
serious concerns for their safety. Incommunicado detention significantly
enhances vulnerability to torture and other ill-treatment.
ACJPS
condemns a nationwide State of Emergency declared by Sudanese President, Omar
Al- Bashir on 22 February 2019. The year-long State of Emergency disbanded the
federal government, and replaced 18 state governors with senior military officers.
According to Article 211 of the Interim National Constitution of 2005, during a
state of emergency the President may suspend part of the Bill of Rights with
the exception of right to life, freedom from slavery, freedom from torture, the
right of non-discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religious creed, the
right in litigation or the presumption of innocence and legal representation.
The
legal framework for emergencies as set out in the Emergency and Protection of
Public Safety Act of 1997, read together with the Emergency and Public Safety
Bylaw of 1998, permits preventive arrest and detention on vague grounds. These
include the belief of the authorities that the person in question has acted or
may act in a way that “affects public security, or public safety, or …
participated in any crime related to the declaration”. The 1998 Bylaw provides
neither time limits for this type of detention, nor judicial oversight, and
therefore authorises prolonged if not indefinite detention. The broad powers
given to the Executive under the 1997 Act and 1998 Bylaw have repeatedly given
rise to concerns over arbitrary arrest and detention, ill-treatment and
torture, and violations of the right to a fair trial, which are facilitated by
the virtually complete absence of safeguards and judicial oversight. In
emergency situations, there are no adequate safeguards against unjustified
infringements on the peaceful exercise of rights to freedom of expression,
assembly and association.
In
his televised address to the nation, President Bashir talked about the fight
against corruption, a dialogue to discuss issues affecting the youth and a
possible dialogue with the opposition political parties. President Bashir asked
the Sudanese Parliament to postpone the intended amendments of the constitution
allowing him to seek a third term. ACJPS received reliable information that
hours before President Bashir addressed the nation and declared a state of
emergency, the Director of NISS, Mr Salah Abdalla “Gosh”, leaked the
President’s anticipated speech to selected journalists and chief editors of
newspapers loyal to the ruling party during a brief indoor meeting and
mentioned that the president would talk about his resignation among other
things. A reliable source informed ACJPS that President Bashir did not mention
his resignation as president or his intent not to run for re-election in 2020
because he was advised by members of the ruling National Congress Party not to.
Following
the declaration of a nation-wide state of emergency, hundreds of Sudanese
citizens went out on the streets in Omdurman, Khartoum and other cities across
the country calling for President Bashir’s resignation. The Government deployed
large number of security forces, including the Sudan Armed Forces, to crackdown
on the protests. Authorities have continued to use live ammunition and tear gas
to disperse protests. Protestors were also beaten by security officials.
Despite crackdown, the Sudanese Professional Association has continued to call
for peaceful protests across the country.
ACJPS
is deeply concerned about the continued use of excessive force by authorities
to crackdown protests in Sudan. The policing of assemblies must respect human
rights and must be carried out in accordance with international standards,
which prohibit the use of force unless strictly necessary and proportionate. It
should be made clear that arbitrary or abusive use of force by security forces
will be punished as a criminal offence.
ACJPS
reiterates it calls to the Government of Sudan to: guarantee the rights to
peacefully assembly and association and expression; guarantee the physical
safety of all detainees; grant the detainees immediate and unequivocal access
to their lawyers, family members and medical services, and release them in the
absence of valid legal charges consistent with international standards. If such
charges exist, the detainees should be brought promptly before an impartial,
independent and competent tribunal and guarantee their procedural rights at all
times. We urge authorities to respect the rights of citizens to freedom of
assembly and expression guaranteed in the Sudanese Constitution, regional and
international treaties which Sudan is party.
Background
On
24 February 2019, President Omar Al-Bashir issued a Presidential Order
appointing Awad Mohamed Bin Auf, the Minister of Defense as the new Vice
President. It important to mention that Mr Bin Auf is one of people placed on
the United States sanctions by former US President George W. Bush’s
administration in May 2007 for his alleged role in the perpetuation of war
crimes in Darfur. The Presidential Order also appointed Mr. Mohammed Tahir
Aila, the former governor of Al-Jazeera State as the Prime Minister whilst Mr.
Ismail Al-Hawli, a member of the ruling party was appointed as the Minister of
Finance. The Minster of Justice Mr. Ali Mohammed Ahmed Salem, the Attorney
General Mr. Omar Ahmed and the Minister of Foreign Affairs Dr. Al-Dirdiri
Mohammed Ahmed, retained their positions.
Since
19 December 2018, tens of thousands of people have protested throughout Sudan.
The Sudanese authorities, including the National Intelligence and Security
Service (NISS) and the Anti-Riot Police as well as private militias in civilian
clothes, have responded by indiscriminately firing live ammunition and tear gas
into crowds of peaceful protesters, killing at least 57 civilians. 816 people
have been arrested and detained in
various detention centers across Sudan. Tear Gas has been fired by police
including in hospitals and universities to disperse protests. Protests were
triggered by the rising prices of basic commodities, with calls for regime
change and a transitional government that will fulfill aspirations for justice,
peace, freedom and democratic transformation.
