location: Geissan
notes: On 1 March 2021, SAF arrested four civilians who travelled from an SPLM-North controlled area at Geissan town (Blue Nile state), where they were tortured by SAF, who accused them of being rebels. It is unclear which faction of the SPLM-North the civilians were linked to. The individuals were released the following day after demonstrations, though their money and produce (which they had intended to sell at the market) was confiscated by the soldiers.
