ICSFT’s declaration at the hrc41 under agenda item 10, Calling for an end to violations against peaceful protestors in Sudan
ICSFT urge Sudan to release all political detainees, stop the use of violence against peaceful protestors, remove all restrictions to rights, and allow for a credible and inclusive political dialogue and peace agreement that includes Darfur, the Nuba Mountains and the Blue Nile, with the view of transitioning to a reformed country that upholds human rights.
We call on this council to establish an independent international fact-finding mission to investigate violations since the start of the protests, and provide technical support to the national investigation agreed by the Forces for Freedom and Change and the TMC to ensure credibility and impartiality.
Once again, we urge this council for long term robust monitoring, public reporting, and meaningful efforts towards accountability! As such we call for the renewal of the mandate of the Independent Expert with the full mandate to investigate and report on violations, including violations committed by TMC, RSF, and NISS.
