Merowe Dam area set for further confrontation and unrest

An unsourced article at the Sudan Tribune, dated 11 April 2006, reports violence started on Friday in the Amri area of the Hamdab (Merowe) Dam when the dam authority carried out its final survey by force. According to the article, the survey - which was supposed to take place last December - has been postponed many times due to the objection of the affected communities. The area is set for further confrontations and unrest, observers believe.
