The Conditions of Sudanese Refugees In Egypt
A group called “Refugees Voice in Egypt” which is made up of 10 refugee leaders organized the peaceful demonstration that took place in front of the UNHCR Office in Moustapha Mahmoud, Mohandessin, Cairo, Egypt. They established this group in January 2005, when UNHCR has suspended all programs to Sudanese refugees. Tthe Sudanese refugees in Egypt, are so overwhelmed by their problems and situation and the lack of attention to their problems and situation from the international community or the Egyptian government, they had no choice but to organize this demonstration so that they could get the attention of the international community to find solutions to their problems
The peaceful demonstration began outside of UNHCR office in Cairo to demand protection from UNHCR and better treatment from the Egyptian government, on September 28th with only 70 Sudanese refugees and has grown substantially each day, to over 3,000 by 29th of December 2005. The demonstration lasted more than 3 months. They were demanding their rights from UNHCR Office in Cairo. They have submitted a list of 13 essential requests and indicated to UNHCR that they will demonstrate until their demands are met.
Currently there are over 3 million Sudanese in Egypt. Some have been here for up to 20 years since the intensification of the civil war in neighboring Sudan. In January 2005, following the peace agreement between the rebels and Sudanese government, UNHCR suspended all Refugee Status Determination interviews, resettlement to a third country, immediate registration of refugees upon arrival, and the right to appeal closed-file cases of all Sudanese refugees. The new UNHCR policy focuses on voluntary repatriation to Sudan and local integration into Egyptian society
These options are unacceptable to the Sudanese refugees. The ongoing prevalence of violence and genocide in Darfur and in the rest of the country show that the situation is not stable and that voluntary repatriation is unrealistic at this time. But for them staying in Egypt is no alternative. The Egyptian government does not recognize their rights as refugees. Although it is a signatory to the 1951 International Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol, Egypt has not implemented these laws and has no domestic refugee laws of its own. Without recognition from the government, they are forced to cope by themselves. They have no access to health, education and have no right to work in Egypt. They work in marginal jobs and face harassment by the police. They have no prospects for future. They are also not protected from forcible return to Sudan. Many Sudanese refugees suffer from physical and psychological abuse, and there have been many incidents of rape and murder. They face a lot of discrimination in Egypt. There is no real protection provided to the refugees by UNHCR, because of the Egyptian government. There have been many incidents where UNHCR blue or yellow cards of Sudanese refugees have been torn up by an Egyptian officer. In addition, the Sudanese National Conference Party opened an office here in Egypt, trying to force the refugees to repatriate back to Sudan

During the demonstration, the leaders had many meetings with UNHCR to negotiate their demands. Finally, on 17th of December 2005, UNHCR has agreed to concede to 12 out of 13 of their demands. The agreement was signed by UNHCR and by four leaders on behalf of the demonstrators. The agreement indicated that the Sudanese refugees must empty the park by 21st of December. Some refugees, especially those from South Sudan, rejected the agreement. There has been tension and many arguments. The leaders tried to persuade the rest to accept the agreement to no avail. The South Sudanese refugees in the park insisted on staying at the park until they get all of their demands. Some of the concessions made by UNHCR were vague. Since the Sudanese refugees do not have much trust at UNHCR office in Cairo, they demanded more concrete solutions. When the park was not emptied on 21st of December, UNHCR asked the Egyptian government to interfere and end the protest, peacefully. The Egyptian government did interfere, however what took place on 29th of December was a massacre of Sudanese refugees, including women and

On December 29th, around 5,000 soldiers blocked the whole Mohandessin area. They first used water canons 3 times directed at 3,000 refugees on a freezing night and than they stormed in to the camp, where majority of the refugees were women and children. The refugees did not fight back at all, they were totally unarmed. The police had sticks in their hands and they began hitting everyone, including children and women. They forced the refugees into buses, carried them one by one, violently. The refugees including women and children were all covered with blood, many injured from the beating and kicking they received from the police. The refugees had little or no clothing on them, all wet from the water canons. Most did not even have their shoes on. They left all their belongings behind, everything they owned, including their suitcases and their documents, which were picked up by the Egyptian authorities and thrown away. There are 29 dead bodies still waiting in the morgue and their families are awaiting decisions from the UNHCR who promised to give $1,000 USD to each family who wants to bury their relatives in Sudan. The authorities distributed all refugees including women and children into seven different prisons and announced that they would deport half of them back to Sudan. With the pressure of the international community, the Egyptian government gave one week and allowed UNHCR to access three prisons and to determine who needs international protection. The UNHCR identified who were registered with them and those who had yellow or blue cards were released. All close-file cases remained in prison, which are around 650 refugees, who were released very recently, after three months. Some Sudanese refugees are still missing. There are about 300 who were at the camp site on the 29th of December and taken to prisons, however, no one has heard from them and they are not on the prison list that UNHCR has. A through investigation must be carried out to find out what happened to them. A through investigation must be carried out and the Egyptian government must be punished for massacring innocent refugees, which includes children and two babies who are less than 1 years old, and for imprisoning men, women and children for up to three months who has not committed any crimes
The situation of the Sudanese refugees became even worst after this incident. No Sudanese refugee is immune from being stopped on the street and being imprisoned. They have no protection and no security. The Sudanese refugees are scared to go out and stay in their homes. One of the major problems the Sudanese refugees face in Egypt is the discrimination they face both from the Egyptian government and the public. They are being harassed, and humiliated daily by the Egyptians. Now things have gotten worst for them.
