Speaking to Radio Dabanga from Paris, where the SRF leaders met during a five-day conference, Agar said that “time has come for the Sudanese to stand by the armed and unarmed opposition forces”.“The demise of the NCP regime can only be realised with the support of the people.” Agar pointed to the “ongoing violence of the Khartoum regime against the population, the genocide in Darfur, the Nuba Mountains, and the Blue Nile, and even in the country’s capital, along with the repression of the media, the detention of politicians and opinion makers”. “In order to stop all this, we call on all the Sudanese, and in particular the opposition, to join forces to get rid of this regime that is eliminating the people of Sudan.” File photo: SRF chairman Malik Agar (Tomo Kriznar)  Related: Sudan’s rebels to unify opposition forces (28 July 2014) Rebel SRF road map ‘towards National Dialogue Sudan’ (25 April 2014)‘Question is how to govern Sudan’: Malik Agar (29 January 2014)
