The International Criminal Court said in July it would investigate allegations of extrajudicial killings, the burning of homes and markets, and looting in Sudan’s Darfur region.
According to the UN, conflict and unrest in Sudan’s western Darfur region have sparked sexual abuse against women. Many people who fled the area to the neighboring country of Chad say that law and order have completely broken down, allowing for an increase in attacks on women.
Sudanese Security officers tell VOA that they left their country and are now at Chad’s border because they lack supplies and ammunition to combat their opponent, paramilitary Rapid Support personnel. Analysts and relief organisations say that the risk of the conflict spreading to neighbouring countries is high as the rule of law deteriorates in Sudan’s Darfur region.
