On Thursday, the Gezira State Police discovered mass graves in various locations near the Wad Madani National Prison. The discovery was made under the supervision of Public Prosecutor Maulana Alaa Eldin Khalifa, and carried out by the state’s Criminal Investigations Department and Forensic Evidence Team.
The police reported that a criminal case has been filed under Article 47 of the Criminal Procedures Act against the rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia. Judicial authorities are working to identify the victims through forensic medical examinations.
It is worth noting that the graves, located on the western front of the Wad Madani National Prison, were found to be improperly buried. Authorities warn that the graves must be relocated before the onset of rains, which could wash them away and cause a severe health and environmental disaster.
