· SAF in Talodi to stop
arrest civilians.
· Sudan government to end
the state of emergency in conflict areas which enables SAF to carry out arrests
at will.
· Sudan government to
ensure that there is rule of law.
· The SAF and authorities
in South Kordufan State/ Nuba Mountains to investigate the circumstances around
Mr. Gamar’s arrest by SAF Talodi and to make the findings public.
