Minni on the rampage

A British project, reportedly costing £100,000 (US$195,000) to help turn Minni Arkou Minnawi's rebels into a political party has been postponed after his men again went on the rampage. Their latest depredations drove aid agencies, including Britain's Oxfam, out of Gereida, Southern Darfur, in January. Minni was suspected of war crimes by a United Nations panel and he was listed for sanctions in early 2006 (AC Vol 47 No 5).
