Slavery is alive and well in Sudan. What this article manages not to mention is that those taking slaves are following a 1400 years of islamist tradition of taking slaves as booty. The Western media must name islam for what it is, a totalitarian, supremacist band of murderous thugs masquerading as a religion.

Darfur civilians 'seized as slaves by Sudan military
Sudan's army and government-backed militia have abducted 'thousands' of civilians from Darfur, including children, to be used as sex slaves or for forced labour, according to a new report.

Many were kidnapped as mounted gunmen from the feared Janjaweed militia swept through their villages and were then marched to military camps where they were repeatedly raped, forced to prepare food, clean fighters' homes or work in their fields.
The report claims that others were flown across the country, where women were sold into forced marriages with soldiers and children were made to carry out domestic duties with no chance of escape.

The report, by the Darfur Consortium, a coalition of 50 African and international charities, said that the practice exactly mirrors the forced enslavement of 14,000 people from Sudan's south during its 1983 to 2005 war with Khartoum.
As then, the government of President Omar al-Bashir has again "comprehensively failed in its duty to protect its citizens from abductions", the report says, adding that its research showed "hundreds, but more likely thousands" of Darfuris had been abducted since the war there started in 2003.
