The Case of Suleiman Jamous - Boycott of Darfur Commanders' Conference

A blog entry from Kadugli, Kordofan, Sudan 4 Feb 2007 - the arbitrary detention of suleiman jamous - excerpt:
A conference of the rebel commanders of Darfur is currently being planned. This conference was the idea of Suleiman Jamous, Humanitarian Coordinator for the Sudan Liberation Movement, who is currently trapped in the UN hospital in Kadugli, Kordofan.

The goal of the conference is to unite the rebel groups in order to be able to negotiate a sustainable and equitable solution to the conflict in Darfur. Suleiman Jamous's political experience and advice is needed at this conference in order for it to be successful. Therefore we will not attend the commanders' conference unless Suleiman Jamous is present at the conference.

Signed,
Commander Abdalla Yahya Ahmed
Commander Siddeig Burra
Commander Suleiman Maragan
Commander Jar Elnebi Abdelkarim
Commander Abdellatief Abdelhameed
