Displaced farmers attacked and injured by ‘militiamen’ in Central Darfur MURNEI CAMP ( 23 Jun e 2013) - A group of 13 displaced people have been assaulted by 16 ‘pro-government militiamen’ as they tended their farms in the Wadi Tor area near Murnei camp in Central Darfur on Friday. A sheikh from the camp told Radio Dabanga that a displaced man was beaten and a displaced woman shot during the attack. Both were transported to Murnei hospital for treatment. The sheikh lamented that “this intimidation of farmers by militiamen is a daily ordeal for the displaced, who are just trying to grow some food. The militiamen just want to get them off the land.” The sheikh appealed to Unamid and the local authorities to put measures in place to protect the displaced from these attacks.
