Between Friday, October 21, and Monday, October 24, 2011, three family visit requests were submitted, but rejected. Last Wednesday morning the family received a telephone call from NISS confirming the approval of a visit for Sunday, October 30, 2011. Unfortunately on the following day (Thursday evening), another call was received cancelling the approved visit for unknown reasons. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">During the latest visit on October 6, Bushra was found to be in a very bad health condition, furthermore it was confirmed that he went into a second hunger strike on October 10, 2011; we therefore strongly believe that the reason for denying his family access to meet him is either because he is in a very bad condition, after being subjected to severe torture, or maybe his life is in danger, if still alive at all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The family of Bushra Gamar urges all human rights, civil society organizations, and the Indigenous People Rights Network Coordinator to exert maximum pressure on the Sudanese authorities to give him access to his family, provide him with medical treatment and hand him over to the proper judicial authorities to decide his fate. The family believes that their son is innocent and he should not be imprisoned indefinitely on unfounded accusations and baseless rumors. We plead with all concerned organizations to do whatever they can do to save the life of a civil society activist whose guilt was his keenness to help on solving conflicts in Darfur and Southern Kordofan. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">DR Ezzeldin Gamar Hussein Rahma <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">On behalf of the family of Dr Bushra Gamar Hussein\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Mobile: +966548455853<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Skype: ezzeldin.rahma1<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The family of Sudanese detained activist Bushra Gamar, who is being held by Sudan\u2019s National Intelligence and Security Services (NISS) in Kober prison- Khartoum North, since 25th June 2011 without charges or trial, has been deprived of an approved visit applied for by his family in Khartoum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-425","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-publications"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/425","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=425"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/425\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":428,"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/425\/revisions\/428"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=425"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=425"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sudanhumanrights.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=425"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
