  • أسامة محمد من مواليد عام 1980، هو مطور ويب مدون وصحفي سوداني من أم درمان. اشتهر بعدما ألقت السلطات السودانية القبض عليه خلال احتجاجات حزيران/يونيو 2012. أسامة هو خريج جامعة الخرطوم ويُدوّن تغريدات على حسابه في موقع تويتر تحت اسم "simsimt". عملَ في 22 حزيران/يونيو 2012 باستعمال هاتفه الذكي على توثيق حضور الشرطة الكبير في حي بوري في الخرطوم لتفريق مظاهرة مخطط لها. قُبضَ على محمد وصديقه من قبل ضباط يرتدون ملابس مدنية. تم إطلاق سراحِ صديقه بعد سبع ساعات من الاحتجاز فيما استمّر اعتقال محمد في سجن كوبر. قبل اعتقاله ظهرَ محمد شريط على قناة الجزيرة يشرح لماذا شارك في الاحتجاجات. حينها ذكر «أنه وبعد ثلاثة وعشرين عاما من القهر والظلم والفقر والجرائم التي ترتكب من قِبل النظام الحالي، حانَ وقت التغيير الآن أمر لا مفر منه.» اعتبرت منظمة العفو الدولية محمد سجين رأي كما ذكرت في بيانٍ لها أنها تعتقدُ أن السلطات السودانية قد احتجزت محمد لمجرد ممارسة حقه في حرية التعبير. كما أعربت عن قلقها من خطر تعرض أسامة للتعذيب. ذكرت قناة الجزيرة أن مستخدمي تويتر ونشطاء حقوق الإنسان السودانيين قد طالبوا بالإفراج عن محمد من خلال هاشتاج #FreeUsamah.

  • Usamah Mohamad (born c. 1980) is a Sudanese web developer, blogger, and citizen journalist from Omdurman arrested during the protests of June 2012. A graduate of the University of Khartoum, he writes on Twitter under the name "simsimt". On 22 June 2012, he and a friend used smartphones to document the heavy police presence in the neighborhood of Burri in Khartoum before a planned protest. They were then arrested by plainclothes officers. Though the friend was released seven hours later, Mohamad continued to be detained, and his relatives were informed that he was being held at Kober Prison. Before his arrest, Mohamad made a video for Al Jazeera explaining why he participated in the protests. In it, he stated his belief that "after twenty-three years of oppression and injustice, poverty, crimes that are all committed in the current regime, change now is inevitable." Amnesty International designated Mohamad a prisoner of conscience, "held solely for exercising his right to freedom of expression". The organization also stated its concern that Mohamad was at risk of torture. Al Jazeera reported that Sudanese Twitter users were calling for his release under the hashtag #FreeUsamah. Mohamed was released from incarceration in August 2012. (en)
