Sudan 'deports' Eritreans
KHARTOUM, 31 May - (ANA - Sudan has deported at least 442 Eritreans, including six registered refugees, back to their country this month, campaign group Human Rights Watch has said. “Sudan is arresting and forcing Eritreans back into the hands of a repressive government without allowing refugees to seek protection,” said Gerry Simpson, senior refugee researcher at HRW. “Sudan should be working with the UN refugee agency to protect these people, not send them back to face abuse,” he added. Sudan has not yet commented on the allegation.(ANA)
