They took him to one of their detention centres in the town,” a parent of school pupils told Radio Dabanga. “The reason for his detention is entirely unclear,” he said. “We are concerned about the sheikh’s health, as he may be exposed to torture. His relatives and lawyer were not allowed to visit him on Wednesday.”“Residents and displaced in Mukjar strongly condemn the detention.
