Two women gang-raped in Darfur’s East Jebel Marra

On Monday morning, two women were gang-raped in the area of Dubo in East Jebel Marra. “The women were on their way from Faluja village, located 5 km south of Dubo, to a nearby village to visit relatives on the occasion of Eid El Adha, when three Janjaweed on camels assaulted them,” a relative of the victims reported to Radio Dabanga. “The Janjaweed, who wore military uniforms, raped the two women (27 and 21) alternately at gunpoint. The gunmen then left the victims, taking their money, sweets and dates with them.” The relative said that the victims were transferred to Dubo El Madrasa, where they received traditional treatment, as there are no health services in the area.
