Sudan Red Crescent: Emblem not misused, 70 buried

An official says an investigation by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies found no evidence that its emblem was misused in a violent region of Sudan. However, spokeswoman Faye Callaghan said Friday that the aid group has buried 70 bodies in South Kordofan. 

A UN report obtained by The Associated Press last month said that Sudanese intelligence agents posed as Red Crescent workers and ordered refugees to leave a UN-protected camp. The allegation occurred in a region where Sudan's Arab military has been targeting a black ethnic minority. (AP)
