Khartoum Express - Sudan

April 2007
He fled to England seeking asylum, only to be deported back to Sudan and severely tortured. In this special investigation, Darfuri refugee, Sadiq Adem Osman, tells his story.

Sadiq unbuttons his shirt to reveal a patchwork of scars. "I was expecting to die, I never thought I would be alive now", he states. He was tortured by Sudanese security officers, who monitor Dafuris abroad. When Sadiq's appeal for asylum in England was rejected and he was returned to Sudan, they were ready. They showed him photos, taken in London, of Darfuris protesting. "They said to me: 'Do you know the people in these photos?'" When Sadiq refused to name people, they pinned his legs down with metal hooks and tortured him. He escaped but is haunted by terrible nightmares and deeply insecure about his future. "I have no country, no family, nothing left".

Where is the video? Where is the channel? Where is your proof? You are living a dream and you haven't gotten out of bed yet. The only proof you have offered is that, "Arabs are Black, because its a fact". That's only proof in your mind. Maybe you mean proof in those video games on your home.

"its ok to uneducated" ? Your making a fool of yourself. Just about every sentence you have posted has unrecognizable grammar. You make outlandish statements without any proof and you're too much of a buffoon to see how ridiculous you look. If English is not your native language, which is looks like its not, why don't you learn the basics before you continue posting in English.

[rumbleking14253]

its ok to uneducated just take your time and learn about Religion and culture and History

HUH??? Never mind, I see why no one has bothered to comment on your posts now.
