Gunmen demand compensation for ‘21 sheep, eaten by two dogs’ in South Darfur
Militiamen captured two young men of Kalma camp in Nyala locality, South Darfur, on Monday. They claimed that the men’s two dogs had eaten 21 of their sheep. Saleh Eisa, Secretary-General of Kalma camp, told Radio Dabanga that Mohamed Ahmed (17) and Adam Mohammed Adam (17) went to fetch firewood east of the camp, early on Monday morning. They had taken their two dogs with them. “A group of Janjaweed intercepted the two men at 8 am, demanding a compensation of SDG14,000 ($2,440) for the sheep. They released Ahmed and Adam at 5 pm, after camp elders had collected an amount of SDG4,000 ($700) as advance payment.” The rest of the money has to be paid within one week. File photo
