Monday, 21 May 2012 09:24 Lagu Francis South Sudan >>> . Members of the Abyei Community in Juba on Monday called for the immediate withdrawal of Sudanese forces from the Abyei. The community members have asked the United Nations Interim Security for Abyei to expel Sudanese troops who are in Abyei town. Speaking to journalists in Juba, the chairperson of the Abyei Community Executive Committee, Deng Mading said the Sudan government must comply to with the African Union resolution calling for a withdrawal of forces from Abyei. "We urge UNISFA to expel SAF outside Abyei town by force. Their mandate is under chapter seven of the UN charter," said Mading. "We asked them under the command of Gen. Tedese in Abyei to hand over the 17 criminals of Missiriya militias' awlad camel and janajawid who have been arrested in Abyei town to International Criminal Court for further justice". South Sudan withdrew its 700 man police force from the contested Abyei area two weeks ago in compliance with an African Union Roadmap to Peace.
