A new report from the United Nations says violence in Sudan’s South Kordofan region in June may have amounted to war crimes or crimes against humanity. The Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights Kyung-wha Kang said more investigation is needed.
Kyung-wha Kang: “The main findings of the report are violations of—serious violations of human rights in terms of indiscriminate attacks, extrajudicial killings, arbitrary arrests, illegal detentions and looting of property. We have cases that would point to, if substantiated with other patterns that point to the same kinds of crimes, crimes against humanity.”
