August 23, 2016 (KHARTOUM) - Sudanese government on Tuesday revealed that
the former First Vice-President of South Sudan and armed opposition leader
Riek Machar is in Khartoum saying Juba was notified that he has been
received for pure humanitarian reasons.

South Sudan’s President Salva Kiir Mayardit sacked Machar from his post as
vice president after a renewal last month of fighting between forces loyal
to the long-time rivals that forced tens of thousands of people to flee.

The Kenyan Standard news website on Thursday reported that the Sudanese
government had sent an aircraft to evacuate the former first vice president
from a hideout in a remote town in the DRC where he crossed into after 40
days in the bushes.

However, an SPLM-IO official told Sudan Tribune that the report published
by the Kenyan website was “unfounded.”

In a statement to the official news agency (SUNA) on Tuesday, Sudan’s
Minister of Information Ahmed Belal Osman said Sudan has recently received
Machar for medical treatment, pointing he arrived in a critical health
condition and needed immediate care.

However, Osman didn’t mention when Machr has arrived in Khartoum.

“Machar’s health is stable currently and he will remain in the country
under comprehensive healthcare until he leaves to a destination of his
choice to complete his treatment," he added.

The United Nations had earlier announced that Machar was received by one of
the neighboring countries for the medical reasons.

The Sudanese minister further stressed that South Sudan’s government has
been notified of Machar’s presence in Khartoum for pure humanitarian
reasons.Machar’s presence in Khartoum coincides with the visit of Taban
Deng Gai who replaced him as First Vice President of South Sudan.

   Your statement is also unfounded for it was very clear that Sudan had a
   deal with UN in Congo to airlift Machar and that is clear. Support him and
   South Sudan will also think of how to support your rebels for we all have
   rebels

         Riek’s relationship with Khartoum started in 1991 he joined hands
         with Beshir in an attempt to destroy SPLA/M. It doesn’t worry
people so
         long that he’s too tasted agonies of war. This’ the most difficult
         rebellion ever Riek has experienced & will mark the end of
history for his
         rebellions.

      It’s really no surprise that the traitor sought out his masters for
      assistance. Khartoum’s poodle will never be President; his
dishonorable and
      disastrous alliance with Khartoum will forever preclude him from the
      Presidency. It will follow him like a dark cloud for all his days.

   All the vice presidents of South Sudan, the legal and the illegal, are
   in Khartoum. Will Kiir start a new attempt at assassination?

   It is well known to everyone that Nuer are our historical ally and we
   will never never let them down. Whatever their decision might be, peace or
   war, we shall support them be it Machar or any other Nuer leader.

      Konan,

      So you will spread Islam soon to your historical ally land. Remember
      this: in 1991 when you started your close ally with Nuer as you
said, South
      Sudan was not a country and that why your historical ally work
well because
      South Sudan was weak, but now South Sudan is a full country with gunships
      and many, many things. Remember that.

   Actually TABAN Deng Gai mission to Khartoum was to finance Khartoum
   Government to Airlift His Master Dr. Riek Machar with Ethiopia Airline to
   Khartoum from DRC.

   That’s why he had a closed door meeting with the Sudan’s FVP letting his
   delegations outside for more than 20 minutes.

   Deng Gai is dangerous.

   Mark my words.
