AT LEAST eight asylum-seekers have drowned trying to cross a river in Sudan during an attempt to smuggle them out of a refugee camp, the UN refugee agency said Thursday.

The accident happened as a group of from the Shegarab-1 camp in the eastern state of Kassala tried to cross the Atbara river on Wednesday evening.

“There was an attempt to smuggle some of these asylum-seekers out of the camp and they were being transported on four rickety, small fishing boats,” said Mohammed Adar, the UNHCR representative in Sudan.

One of the boats sank and “eight bodies have been found and two are still missing,” he said, adding that another 10 people swam to safety and returned to the camp.

The other boats crossed successfully, Adar said, without saying how many people had managed to leave the camp.

Adar said the United Nations had not verified the nationality of the dead but said the government had sent a team to investigate.

Their intended destination was unknown, but eastern Sudan has a significant refugee population, the majority Eritreans.

Nearly 110,000 Eritreans currently live throughout Sudan.

The Shegarab-1 camp is jointly run by the Sudanese government and the UN and houses 15,000 people, mostly asylum-seekers.

The December 24 attack on Eritreans at the Shagarab refugee camp in Sudan, when criminal elements of the Rashaida, in collaboration with Sudanese security officials, assaulted, molested, kidnapped Eritreans and torched their huts, is not the first incident and, sadly, won’t be the last incident unless they find a protector. There are four parties that should, but have failed, to protect them: the Sudanese government, the Eritrean government, the International community and, lastly, the Eritrean opposition. This Pencil will focus on what we, in the Opposition, can do to ensure that this type of assault does not occur to our fellow compatriots in Sudan or anywhere in the world, for that matter. read more
