We find the networks that finance and supply war.

Justin Lynch briefs the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission on the networks financing crimes in Sudan

One year after the fall of El Fasher, CIG's Managing Director presented phone-location research tracing UAE-backed Colombian mercenaries from Somalia and Abu Dhabi to Nyala and El Fasher, and set out why foreign networks multiply the killing on both sides of Sudan's war.

• More than twenty states have provided financing or logistics to Sudan's warring parties, or had their weapons turn up on its battlefields.
• More than a hundred devices tracked: Colombian mercenaries trained at a UAE base in Ghayathi, staged through Bosaso and Kufra, and present in El Fasher as the city fell.
• The war has two sides: Sudanese Armed Forces drone strikes, supplied by Iran and Turkey, overwhelmingly cause civilian casualties.

Public sector

Investigations for governments, international organizations and NGOs

Weapons proliferation, illicit financial flows, sanctions evasion, military buildups, logistics networks, human rights violations and critical-minerals holdings — to evidentiary standards fit for media attribution, legal accountability and policy impact.

Private sector

Asset recovery, political risk and due diligence in hard places

Hidden assets, beneficial ownership and cross-border flows in jurisdictions where conventional investigations stall — grounded in direct access to political actors, business networks and on-the-ground sources.

How we work

Rigorous analysis, faster and without the overhead of legacy firms
