In August 2003 it is alleged that Ahmad Harun, a Sudanese Government Minister, and Ali Kushayb a leader of the Janjaweed, organised the destruction of Bindisi - a town in Darfur. The ICC prosecutor states that their followers murdered over 100 civilians from the Fur tribe, raped women and girls, destroyed the mosque and food stores, and forced 34,000 people to flee.*

Since the warrants for their arrest were issued by the International Criminal Court neither man has been handed over to the ICC or prosecuted by Sudanese courts. Instead, Ali Kushayb has been freed from prison while Harun has remained in his post as State Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and was appointed to co-chair a committee charged with investigating human rights complaints, including those committed in Darfur. As Minister he is responsible for those displaced by the violence in Darfur, and is also charged with liaising with the UNAMID peacekeeping force currently being deployed to protect those same people. Thus one of the chief suspects in an investigation into mass murder is now responsible for the fate of the victims.

Please express your deepest concern at Sudan's defiance of international law and call for the United Nations Security Council to:
- visit Khartoum to ask for the Sudanese government to hand over the two suspects
- impose targeted sanctions (asset freezes) on the Sudanese Government ministers protecting these two men.

Your excellency, I would like to express my deep concern over the defiance of the UN Security Council by the Government of Sudan. It has now been over a year since the ICC issued arrest warrants for Ahmad Harun and Ali Kushayb. Both men are each wanted for over 40 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur. Instead of being arrested Ahmad Harun remains State Minister for Humanitarian Affairs and was appointed to co-chair a commission investigating human rights abuses, including those committed in Darfur. Thus a suspected perpetrator is now in charge of feeding his own suspected victims and investigating suspected international crimes in Darfur. It is now clear that the Government of Sudan has no intention of investigating crimes against humanity in Darfur. Furthermore, war crimes continue to be committed, the Government continues to obstruct UNAMID peacekeepers and continues to hinder the world's humanitarian efforts in Darfur. The Security Council referred the case of Darfur to the ICC in order to uphold international law. The effort to build a system of international justice is jeopardised by Sudan's defiance. I urge you to call for a special visit to Khartoum by the UN Security Council as soon as possible to demand that the suspects are handed over and to impose targeted sanctions on those Government officials who are hiding Ahmad Harun and Ali Koshayb, and those who continue to commit war crimes in Darfur. Will you do this? I look forward to hearing back from you.

Yes please -- I would like to receive more information/actions about war criminals No thank you -- just send this email please
