Sudan: Beating at Darfur talks fans ethnic tensions

Three members of a rebel movement from Sudan's Darfur region have beaten up two fellow rebel delegates at peace talks in Nigeria, in what mediators called a "barbaric" attack that aggravated ethnic tensions. The attackers and their victims were delegates of the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM), one of two rebel groups talking with the Sudanese government in the Nigerian capital Abuja in an attempt to end three years of bloodshed in Darfur.
