DARFUR: UN PEACEKEEPING MISSION PROBING MURDER OF BLUE HELMET IN MUHAJERIA
New York, Apr 19 2013 11:00AM
The African Union-United Nations peacekeeping mission in Darfur is
working in coordination with the Government of Sudan to find
attackers who killed at least one blue helmet earlier today in what
is considered a war crime under international law.

"In the early morning hours of 19 April, one peacekeeper of the
African Union-United Nations Mission in Darfur (UNAMID) was shot dead
and two others injured in an attack by unidentified assailants on the
mission's team site near Muhajeria," according to a
<"http://unamid.unmissions.org/Default.aspx?tabid=11027&ctl=Details&mid=14214&ItemID=22350&language=en-US">statement
from UNAMID.

An estimated 18,000 displaced persons remain concentrated around the
Mission's team sites near the Muhajeria and Labado villages since 6
April, when fighting broke out between the Government forces and the
Sudan Liberation Movemenet/Minni Minawi.

The UN has been calling for humanitarian access to assist the groups,
who are mostly women and children.

In today's statement, UNAMID said it was investigating the events
surrounding the incident and working in coordination with Government
of Sudan to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice.

The Mission reiterated that "any attack on international peacekeepers
is a crime under international law."

Earlier in the week, Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon spoke about
unrelated attacks on peacekeepers in South Sudan where he recalled
"that the killing of peacekeepers is a war crime that falls under the
jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court," his spokesperson
said.
