were no informed estimates on the extent of trafficking, either for jockeys
or for sexual exploitation. There were credible reports that tribal leaders
with government connections transported children to the There were credible reports that
intertribal abductions of women and children continued in the South. Victims
frequently became part of the new tribal family, with most women marrying
into the new tribe; however, some victims were used for labor or sexual
purposes. As intertribal fighting in the South decreased, the number of
abductions also appeared to decline. The government acknowledged that
abductions occurred and that abductees were sometimes forced into domestic
servitude and sexual exploitation. The CEAWC and its 22 joint tribal
committees investigated abduction cases and sought to facilitate the safe
return of victims. CEAWC did not pursue legal action against abductors. CEAWC
reported that since 1999, 1,354 abductees were reunited with their families.
Credible sources noted that some of the CEAWC-facilitated reunions were
forced repatriations of persons over age 18 against the wishes of the
abductees. During the past 20 years, the LRA
kidnapped more than 20 thousand Ugandan children, took them back to the
southern part of the country, and forced them to become sex slaves, pack
animals, or soldiers. Many of the victims were killed. The LRA also abducted
citizens while raiding towns in the South. According to SPLM/A officials, on
November 21, suspected LRA rebels abducted 11 people in Concluding Observations Of The Committee On The Rights Of

animosities in the south have been aggravated. An ancient tribal practice has
once more become common: women and children are being abducted by rival

up enough ransom money to buy them back. The Sudan Foundation, a non-Muslim
group, claims that "Outside those areas controlled by the Sudanese
Government, the old practice of inter-tribal feuding continues. In these
raids prisoners are taken, who must then be ransomed. What looks like the
purchase of slaves is actually the redemption of prisoners of war." The Sudan Peoples Liberation Army
