The US Embassy in Khartoum has said it is “deeply saddened by the organised, violent attack on April 3 against church members and school teachers". A long-lasting dispute over the church's management escalated in the deadly police raid, one of the church elders told Radio Dabanga last week. The raid interrupted a demonstration the youth and members of the church staged to reject investment plans for the land. "The police later returned with a group that signed the contract to the site. One of them stabbed Yunan Abdallah to death and seriously wounded another who was transferred to hospital." In a press statement on Thursday, the spokesman for the Foreign Ministry expressed condolence to the family of elder Abdallah. He said that the incident “was an individual and isolated <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=4dd6996cb2&e=5ffa50b614> one and will not affect the freedom of religion".

Two women and a child were killed. The problems started when the Commissioner of El Geneina announced the relocation of the camp's market, early last week. The displaced people have strongly opposed the idea. Witnesses told this station that police and security forces started a fire in the market stalls after the Commissioner ordered them to start the removal by force. Angered camp residents held a protest march while others set fire to the police post and a number of locality buildings. Provoked, the government forces started to shoot at the protesters, according to a witness. Two women and a child were fatally hit. Nine others sustained injuries. A camp elder reported yesterday that a community and seven others who were detained during the camp protests , have been released. “But the situation, despite the relative calm, remains tense, as the people are still extremely angry about what happened.” The Government of Sudan said it will form a committee <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=c95fccefa8&e=5ffa50b614> to investigate the incidents between police forces and camp residents. *More news from Radio Dabanga:* *Crime in South Darfur: Three killed, soldiers wounded* <http://dabangasudan.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=ac95e0e4d9338971bb35b6965&id=185a3575fd&e=5ffa50b614> April 11 - 2017 NYALA / EL MALAM / NITEAGA South Darfur has witnessed a series of killings in violent incidents during the weekend.
