Sudan army torturing people to death, claims rights group

A human rights group has alleged that the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) is responsible for torturing civilians to death. The Military Intelligence and Security Service (MIS) have reportedly been suppressing accusations and covering up evidence of their involvement. The rights group has called for an immediate investigation into the allegations and for the perpetrators to be brought to justice.

The allegations come after the recent arrest of more than a dozen high-profile activists and politicians by the SAF. The detainees include Sudan's opposition leaders, who have been critical of the country's military coup and have demanded a transition to civilian rule. The human rights group has claimed that the arrests are part of a larger campaign by the military to silence any opposition and tighten its grip on power.

The group has called for an immediate end to the violence and for the release of all political detainees. It has also urged the international community to intervene and pressure the Sudanese military to respect human rights and the democratic process.
