SLM Abdelshafi says holding consultation to restructure the group

June 13, 2007 (LONON) — The rebel Sudan Liberation Movement- led by Ahmed Abdelshafie has announced that consultations are underway with all the factions of the movement to adopt a new structure for the group.

Below the text of the press release:

During his visit to the liberated areas (SLM/A-held territories) in Darfur, Mr. Ahmed Abdelshafie (Toba), the Chairman of the SLM/A, has established a task force (commission) consisting of five members to hold wide consultations with the field commanders to find remedies to the Movement’s ailing structure.

We are pleased to announce that, the recommendations of that task force are now before the Chairman of the SLM/A.

Below are the recommendations:

1. The SLM/A’s hierarchy shall consist of three levels (organs):

– Supreme Command Council;
– Executive Bureau;
– Revolutionary Council.

2. The Chairman of the SLM/A shall be the Commander in Chief of the Sudan Liberation Army;

3. Steps shall, immediately, be taken to start the healing and the reconciliation process.

The SLM/A military and political leaders (inside Sudan and abroad) are now holding consultations with all sections/divisions of the Movement to adopt these recommendations. We expect that, these consultations will be concluded in the very near future.
