The BBC’s Mike Thompson has interviewed a female student who suffered a violent attack at her university at the hands of the Sudanese government. This first hand account of the violent attack on female students at Khartoum University is an opportunity to hear about the violence facing Darfuris today in Sudan.
Click here to listen to her account of the attack.
She concludes, “We are hoping that the international community will help protect us by telling President al-Bashir that this violence against young women is wrong; it’s against both the law and our religion. He should stop this and allow us to continue our education.”

It is my pleasure, and I’m sure all Ahfad people to host the UofK students in a testemony hearing at Ahfad University for Women.
We do it all the time with our students, the last session was attended by Pamela Omidyar of the “Elders” on their visit to Sudan.
Pls pass on my invitation, to agree on details.
