Adama Dieng, who was appointed in November 2021 by the UN Human Rights Council, has expressed deep concern over the killing of two protesters in Khartoum on Monday.
In a series of tweets, Dieng called on the Sudanese authorities to ensure prompt and impartial investigations into the killing, wounding, and arbitrary detention of demonstrators and members of resistance committees, to bring those responsible to justice. Since the military coup of October 25 last year, 81 demonstrators have been killed.
