Khartoum is claiming that "Dily," the self-identified and pseudonymous Janjaweed fighter that recently interviewed by the BBC, is nothing more than a fraud who is making up stories in the hopes of gaining asylum in the U.K. Dily says that he joined the Janjaweed under pressure from his tribal elders, in support of the government's directive to protect the "Arab lands" that the nomads depended on from encroaching black farmers. Khartoum, Dily says, recruited, trained, directed, and unleashed the force on the people of Darfur, an allegation that officials have of course long denied. But Dily has details, and Darfuris in Britian reportedly validate his story.
