Alleged arbitrary detention, ill-treatment and interrogation of two human rights
defenders. On 12 April 2015, Ms. Sandra Farouq Kodouda was forcibly removed from
her car, before being released and left on a road in eastern Khartoum on 15 April
2015. Reportedly, there were signs of ill-treatment in detention. On 20 April 2015,
Mr. Mustafa was arrested following an inquiry he made at the National Intelligence
and Security Service office regarding Ms. Kodouda’s abduction. He remains in
detention but has not been formally charged. Ms. Kodouda was once again detained
the same day. She was released on bail but her interrogation continued until 27 April
2015. The case against her remains open. Concern is expressed that the criminal
prosecution of Ms. Kodouda and Mr. Mustafa may be a result of their peaceful and
legitimate human rights activities in Sudan.
