SUBJECT: SUDAN - RESPONSE TO DEMARCHE ON GATHERING 
INFORMATION FOR INDIVIDUALS UNDER UNSCR 1591 
 
REF: A. STATE 12234 
 
     ¶B. KHARTOUM 2159 
     ¶C. KHARTOUM 2003 
 
Classified By: P/E Chief E. Whitaker, Reason: Section 1.4 (b) and (d) 
 
¶1. (C) Per Ref A, post has gathered all available 
information and AU reporting regarding individuals listed; 
new information on most individuals was limited.  Post will 
send separately four DLO IIR logs that may facilitate 
review of relevant material.  These include lists of the 
AMIS reports that are in the IIRs:  36 reports for FY 2005 
and 77 reports for FY 2006.  These reports are from the 
field and are used to produce the CFC reports that are 
available on the AU website (Note:  Embassy Addis has 
indicated that CFC reports are available through December 
2005, but that the AU website is undergoing difficulties. 
End note.)  We assume that most of these reports, as well 
as others, have been carefully vetted by various agencies 
in Washington. 
 
¶2. (C) Poloff,s inquiries gathered the following additional 
information: 
 
-- Gibril Abdul Karim Bari, NMRD Commander:  Zaghawa tribe, 
Kubara clan, Bigaa sub-clan; probably from the village of 
Tondabaia.  Is said to have served in the Chadian Army from 
1990 to 2001. 
 
-- Mohamed Saleh Harba, Leader of the JEM-F (JEM 
Revolutionary Field Leadership):  Zaghawa tribe, Kubara 
clan, Nuri sub-clan.  Probably from the Karnoi area, a 
small village called Karigari.  AMIS troops captured by 
Mohamed Saleh were released unharmed; limited assets to 
freeze or travel outside of West Darfur to restrict. 
 
-- Jedou Issa Altayib (nom de guerre: Thagir), SLA (Minawi) 
Military Chief of Staff:  Probably born in 1978; Zaghawa 
tribe, Wagi clan.  Is one of the few living members of the 
Darfur Liberation Army (DLA), the predecessor to the SLA. 
Rumored to be a graduate of Khartoum University, but seems 
uneducated without the intellectual capacity or authority 
to plan strategy.  He has no assets to freeze. 
 
-- Musa Hilal:  Born in 1960 in Kutum, North Darfur; son of 
a Nazir; Julul tribe.  Has assets and travels outside of 
the country.  Arab militia fighters loyal to Hilal have 
occupied the village of Tama, driving civilians out and 
attacking anyone who approaches the village. 
 
-- Nasr Tijani Kadir:  Is responsible for the referred to 
attack on Khor Abeche.  He probably has significant assets.
