Prologue:
Yesterday, two Sudanese gangs came to blows in the centre of Adelaide with one of the gang members being chased and brutally hacked to death with a butcher’s knife. The media and the government are currently trying to cover up Sudanese gang related crime and violence, describing this – the latest death – as two friends having a bit of a tiff.

Police said about 15 Sudanese youths started fighting in City Cross Arcade at 3.40pm. The fight continued on Grenfell St and then across the road and into the newsagency, about 30m from the road.
Daniel’s death has also raised the issue of how Australia copes with an influx of people from a background that is as soaked in violence as Sudan’s.
Around 1500 Sudanese people have arrived in South Australia in the past decade, fleeing the violence in their homeland.
