but the application was ignored, and that on that same day, he was taken to the Central Khartoum Criminal Court, where he was presented before a judge who extended his detention for two weeks. The Victim was repeatedly taken back to Kober Prison and presented to the same Court for the extensions of his detention: for another one week on 27 July 2011 and again on 3 August 2011; and for three days on 10 August 2011. During this period, his family allegedly needed permission to visit him, and only on Mondays. 12. The Complainant avers further that on 14 August 2011 , the Victim was again taken to the Office of Crimes against the State Prosecutor where he was told that he would be released the same day or the next, after he signed some papers, which he did. The Victim was however reportedly taken by NSS officials immediately he left that Office to the NSS Political Affairs Department, where he was told that he was needed to discuss a matter. The Victim was again allegedly blindfolded and handcuffed, with his feet chained, and on arrival at the NSS Political Affairs Department, was taken back to Kober Prison, without any explanation. The Complainant claimed that the Victim was initially barred from contacting his family, but however subsequently permitted on 24th August 2011 and 2nd September 2011 , and thereafter once a month, for only ten minutes, in the presence of security personnel who recorded the discussions which had to be in Arabic and not relate to political or social matters. 13. The Complainant further avers that on 26 September 2011 , the Victim informed the officer-in-charge at Kober Prison of his decision to carry out a hunger strike, after which he was blindfolded and handcuffed, with his feet chained, and taken to the NSS Political Affairs Department. On arrival, the Victim was initially put in solitary confinement, but later that day, brought before a security personnel whom he informed that he had been unlawfully detained for 44 days without charge or trial, released by the Office of the Crimes against the State Prosecutor and re-arrested by NSS, and that he would continue with the hunger strike unless he was released or transferred to Office of the Crimes against the State Prosecutor. Following this, the Victim was assured by the security personnel that he would be released soon and should therefore not proceed with the hunger strike, which was considered a suicide attempt, for which the NSS would not be responsible. 14. The Complainant alleges that on 27 September 2011, the Victim was taken back to Kober Prison and placed in solitary confinement handcuffed with his feet chained. the Complainant also submitted that the Victim was let out of the prison cell five times a day to pray, and that the cell was bare, and he slept on the floor. In addition, the Complainant avered that the health of the Victim deteriorated as he was only drinking water, and on 28th September 2011 , the doctor checked him and injected him with sodium and glucose drips, for which the prison guard escorted him from his solitary cell handcuffed and with his feet chained to and from the clinic within the prison premises, each time the drips were administered. the Complainant added that the drips were administered on the Victim with his feet still chained.
