Sudanese Muslims hold Christian slaves

Christian Solidarity International (CSI) has issued a report on the liberation of 232 Sudanese slaves earlier this month. The slaves - Christian and traditionalist members of the Dinka tribe - were liberated from Arab masters in Sudan. The enslavement of these Black non-Muslim Sudanese took place during jihad raids undertaken by Arab militias. Interviews with all 232 slaves reveal a clear pattern of physical and psychological abuse. The liberated slaves reported having been subjected to beatings, death threats, rape, female genital mutilation, forced conversion to Islam, racial and religious insults and work without pay. Some slaves reported witnessing the execution of fellow captives. Slavery persists in Sudan and an estimated 35,000 Black Africans from the Dinka tribe remain enslaved today. Most of these Dinka slaves are held by masters in Darfur. Reports from the UN also confirm the use of slavery as a weapon of war against Black Africans in Darfur. Among the interviewed slaves were:
Achan Mawien Guat - pregnant 17 year-old: Enslaved, Raped, Circumcised, and Islamized.
Peter Akot Dut Hol - 19 year-old Christian: Enslaved, Islamized, Father Murdered, Mutilated and Terrorized. Reuters: Sudanese Slaves Liberated
