The UN Security Council renews the mandate of the peacekeeping multi-units force in the erupted Sudanese region of Darfur. The renewal issued for another year, after resolving a last-minute disputes between members.
The decision had been complicated by the International Criminal Court's move to indict Sudanese President Omer Bashir of crimes in the region, BBC says. (This is nonsense! Read the analyses in the African Journal here)
The resolution notes an African Union request for the Council to postpone the ICC's work but does no more than that. Fourteen of the Council's fifteen members voted in favour but the US abstained, the BBC said.

Sudan Secret Unfolds!
Sudanese Umma Party and National Congress singed a new agreement that unfold the secret agendas since the coup of 1989, which overthrew the Umma's leader.
Umma Party signed the so-called compromise agreement with the so-called National Congress. National Congress Party is a combination of a dictatorial ruling party, which seized power in 1989 through a coup d'etat by some members of al-Turabi's party in the army.
Sudanese National Alliance (SNA) rejected the so-called compromise agreement and said that there are no new items in it. SNA declared in a statement issued on May 25 that the new agreement is contained in the Comprehensive Peace Agreement and the Convention of Cairo. Sudanese National Alliance described the signing of the agreement as retreat of the Umma Party from what the political powers in the opposition have agreed on, especially the agreement on the electoral law. More than that Sudanese National Alliance considered the new agreement as devoted to religious state because it puts Shariaa jurisprudence (Islamic interpretation to the law) above the law.
Sudanese Communist Party (SCP) announced the party's ideas to emerge from the current political crises in Sudan in a statement issued on May 24. The SCP stressed the party's commitment to implement all agreements signed by the political powers in the opposition and the National Conference. The party calls for solving the Darfur problem by acting towards implementing the demands of the people's movements of Darfur during the past five years.

ICC to Try War Crimes Suspects in Darfur
Dictators in Sudan refuses to hand over two men named as war crimes suspects in Darfur to the International Criminal Court. Dictators said The ICC had no jurisdiction to try Sudanese and that their own courts were capable of prosecuting suspects.
The ICC named Humanitarian Affairs Minister Ahmed Haroun and Janjaweed militia leader Ali Mohammed Ali Abdel-Rahman, as war crimes suspects.
Chief prosecutor at the ICC, Luis Morenp-Ocampo said the two men are suspected of 51 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Those counts include crimes committed during attacks on some villages near Kodoom, Bindisi, Mukjar and Arawala in western Darfur.
Meanwhile, Sudanese Justice Minister Mohammed Ali al-Mardi said "We're not concerned with, nor do we accept, what the International Criminal Court prosecutor has opted for."
He claimed that "All the evidence the prosecutor referred to is lies given to him by people who bear arms against the state, bear arms against citizens and kill innocent citizens in Darfur."
BBC says, Sudan is not a signatory to the convention under which the ICC was established and has repeatedly said it'll not abide by any indictments or rulings.
BBC says some 200,000 people have died in the conflict since 2003.

Peacekeepers Face Sexual Abuses Claims
Another investigation on some kinds of abuses the international peacekeepers were involved in or committed is under way, news says. The UN says it will investigate allegations that some peacekeepers in southern Sudan have been involved in the rape and sexual abuse of children.
The Daily Telegraph said the abuse began shortly after the UN mission arrived in March 2005 to enforce a peace agreement that ended 21 years of civil war in the region. (50 years of civil war ACTUALLY). The British newspaper has quoted an internal report by UN children's agency UNICEF and cited interviews with 20 alleged victims. It says that UN personnel in the regional capital, Juba, have been having sex with children as young as 12 years. It has gathered information from more than 20 people who say they have been abused. The UNICEF's report suggests the UN has been aware of the abuse for over a year.
The UN has more than 10,000 police, peacekeepers and staffers from over 70 countries in southern Sudan. There have been allegations of sexual abuse by UN peacekeepers in places such as DR Congo, Haiti and Liberia, BBC says while quoting the former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan who said there would be "zero tolerance" of sexual exploitation by peacekeepers. The UN says it has investigated abuse allegations against 316 of its personnel since January 2004, 179 of whom have been disciplined.
