The Central Committee of Sudanese Doctors reported 53 such cases in Red Sea and El Gezira states on Friday. Dr Mohamed Naji El Asam, Member of the Doctors' Executive Committee, told Radio Dabanga in a special interview that the federal Ministry of Health has kept silent about the disease in spite of the confirmation by laboratory tests on acute diarrhoea samples conducted in the Ahmed Gasim Hospital in Khartoum. The medic said that of the 42 patients stricken with the disease in Port Sudan Hospital, two children died last week. 11 patients are in the quarantine department in Wad Madani Hospital in El Gezira state, where six to ten cases are recorded every day, El Asam added. He attributed the outbreak and spread of the disease to the pollution of drinking water in various parts of the country. Medical journalist Osman Hashim reported from Port Sudan that the state government announced taking preventive measures to limit the spread of the deadly disease. Reports about the spread of ‘watery diarrhoea’ in various parts of Sudan increased during the last quarter of 2016. At least 17 people died of the disease in Blue Nile state.

Leader of the SLM-Second Revolution, Abulgasim Imam El Haj and Dr. Amin Hassan Omar, the Presidential Envoy for Darfur peace negotiations signed on behalf of the government. Ahmed bin Abdullah Aal Mahmoud, Deputy Prime Minister of Qatar, Musa Mohamed Ahmed, the Assistant to President Omar Al Bashir, and the head of the AU-UN Mission in Darfur (Unamid) attended the event. “The SLM-SR will stand for what has not been implemented in the Doha Document for Peace in Darfur,” El Haj said afterwards. His movement's inclusion can widen the area for implementations of the Doha peace agreement, especially in the Jebel Marra mountains where the SLM led by Abdel Wahid El Nur <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=3a7a1d353a&e=5ffa50b614> holds its base. El Haj and allied combatants defected from El Nur's movement in May 2014. According to the mediator for Qatar, Deputy Minister Abdullah Aal Mahmoud, contacts are ongoing with the non-signatory movements on the Doha document. “We know that some have specific demands, but some of them are difficult to achieve, including the opening of the Document and start negotiating on it.” The Doha peace agreement was first signed on 11 July 2011 by the Sudanese government and the Liberation and Justice Movement, a coalition of breakaway factions of Darfur rebel movements, and two years later by the Justice and Equality Movement faction led by Bakheit Abdelkarim ‘Dabajo’. *More news from Radio Dabanga:* *Indonesian Unamid police deny smuggling arms from Darfur* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=cb154dbab9&e=5ffa50b614> January 24 - 2017 EL FASHER / JAKARTA Indonesia's National Police has denied reports that an Indonesian police unit, which served for one year under Unamid, allegedly attempted to smuggle a large number of weapons... *12-year-old girl abducted in North Darfur* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=1c535d3603&e=5ffa50b614> January 22 - 2017 DUBBO EL OMDA Gunmen seized a girl and her cows in Tawila locality in North Darfur on Friday, and took her to an unknown destination. “Three armed men riding on camels intercepted Shadia Haroun... *North Darfur capital ‘crammed with cars from Libya’* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=1dc574a309&e=5ffa50b614> January 22 - 2017 EL FASHER The squares in front of the North Darfur General Command and the Customs Office in the state capital El Fasher are reportedly crammed with about 4,000 vehicles from Libya... *'Sudan deliberately attacks Darfuri students': Amnesty International* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=5200e8b9dc&e=5ffa50b614> January 20 - 2017 NAIROBI / KHARTOUM / OMDURMAN Dozens of students have been killed, injured and expelled from universities since 2014 for speaking out against human rights violations in Darfur, according to... <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=91d9b97cd1&e=5ffa50b614> *This week's Most-Read on Facebook:* *No water, bread, fuel, electricity in South Kordofan capital* Read article <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=90c9f6c054&e=5ffa50b614> || Go to Facebook <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=1c93304571&e=5ffa50b614> *Three TRACKS activists go free* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=ed65ac4e3d&e=5ffa50b614> January 20 - 2017 KHARTOUM The Criminal Court in Khartoum acquitted three affiliates of the Centre for Training and Human Development (TRACKS) on Thursday,and dropped the death penalty against two others.
