Witnesses accused pro-government militias of looting three displaced persons’ homes at the Kassab camp, near Kutum in North Darfur on Tuesday. A victim’s relative informed Radio Dabanga that three armed men infiltrated the Kassab camp at two o’ clock on Tuesday morning and looted three camp residents’ homes at gunpoint. The relative added the militia raided the home of the displaced person Mariam Ali Ahmed, who was also beaten, and they stole all her money. Afterwards, he said the militia marched to the home of another camp resident, Issa Omar Mohamed. The source affirmed Mohamed was beaten with batons and that the gunmen stole all his money, two televisions and expensive traditional women’s clothes (Thob). The witness said the gunmen then moved on to Ibrahim Mohamed Issa’s home, who was beaten and had 800 Sudanese pounds and his mobile phone stolen. Sources revealed that Mariam Ali Ahmed and Issa Omar Mohamed are now bedridden because of the severe beatings. They said they informed the Kutum police and UNAMID’s troops stationed at the camp about the incidents.Related content: Kassab and Fatta Barno victims: authorities’ bureaucracy (16 August 2012)
