Gunmen kill three IDPs in South Darfur camp

[SUDANTRIBUNE] Gunmen killed three people in an attack on a youth football team in South Darfur’s Kalma camp on Saturday.

Kalma is home to over 100,000 displaced people who fled their areas and villages during the counterinsurgency campaign launched by Sudanese government bully boyz in 2003.

In a statement to the Sudan Tribune, the general coordinator of the displaced people camps in Darfur Yagoub Fori accused a government force without indicating their affiliation of attacking a training of the youth football team, organized by the junior team in Kalma camp.

"The perpetrators shot at the young men, killing three of them on the spot and wounding four others," he said."

"The assailants belong to a well-known regular force as it is confirmed by the license plate number of their vehicle," he stressed.

Speaking about the circumstances of the incident, Ezaldin Musa, a resident of the camp, told Sudan Tribune that the football team objected to the intrusion of the button men into the training field.

"In response, the gunnies fired several rounds of bullets at the youth before fleeing," he added.
