Nyala , July 9(Darfur 24)
The head of the Civil Administration in South Darfur, Mohamed Ahmed Hassan, revealed that 37 defendants were arrested and tried with imprisonment and fines for violating the emergency order.
Hassan said during an audio recording directed to the media on Tuesday that the security plan that was developed within a month contributed positively and led to a reflection of the security situation in the state with the testimony of citizens.
He stated that his administration carried out intensive security campaigns with the participation of the joint force with a number of more than 50 vehicles to fight and eliminate negative phenomena, confirming that 37 defendants for violating the emergency law and negative phenomena were being tried with various fines through the Nyala Central Civil Court, while the investigation and trial of others continued.
Hassan denied arresting any citizen outside the framework of the Emergency Law and the Fight against Negative Phenomena, pointing to the disappearance of the drug phenomenon that was openly promoted in front of citizens.
He pointed to the disappearance of the phenomenon of arms trade, which was openly common in Nyala markets, in addition to the cessation of the theft of doors and windows from homes in neighborhoods and civilian institutions.
He stressed that his government will take further measures a month after the emergency decision was issued and evaluate some mistakes to enhance security by strengthening the foundations and opening the large Nyala prison in the Karari district after it was well equipped to accommodate the accused, develop the courts and raise their efficiency.
Muhammad Ahmed Hassan, in Emergency Order No. (1) obtained by “Darfur 24” last June following his appointment by the Rapid Support Forces as head of the Civil Administration, prohibited the preparation, publication, or circulation of news that harms the lives of citizens and public tranquility, and prohibited the carrying of weapons in markets and public gatherings. Do not open fire on public or private occasions except with permission.
Under the emergency order, a partial curfew was imposed within the city of Nyala from nine o’clock at night until five o’clock in the morning, and a ban on riding any additional person on a motorcycle.
The emergency order imposed a prison sentence of 6 months or a fine of three million pounds for anyone who violates the law, as the Nyala Central Court is responsible for examining emergency violations.
