An independent investigative mission to Sudan released a report today documenting intensified armed attacks on civilians by government forces. Gunships, for example, frequently attack and terrorize villagers from an airstrip maintained by Talisman Energy and its partners in the Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Company...The report recommends that foreign oil companies, including Talisman, should not remain in Sudan if they continue to refuse regular, international, independent reporting of the impacts of their operations on the Sudanese people.
