A desperate attempt is currently going on to cover up the crimes that have been committed against Ethiopian patriots in Eritrea in the hands of Col. Fitsum and his Ethiopian collaborators in the Diaspora. One of the colonel’s collaborators is an Internet discussion forum in Patalk.com called ECADF.
When reports about the disappearance of Col. Tadesse Muluneh and several other former and current members of the Ethiopian People’s Patriotic Front (EPPF) have surfaced recently, ECADF has taken a lead role in trying to cover up the crime by trying to impugn Ethiopian Review’s credibility and trash-talking its editor.
Last night, confronted with some angry Ethiopians, the head of the ECADF admin had a meltdown. Trembling and resorting to vulgarity and ethnic slur, he tried to explain what happened to the 17 fighters who have reportedly been executed following EPPF’s general assembly in February 2010.
In his bizarre cover up attempt, the ECADF head admin has admitted that Col. Fitsum has been accepting bribes from Ethiopians in Diaspora. He said that when a person named Selamhunu was sent to EPPF to deliver money collected from the Diaspora, he gave it to the Eritrean colonel instead. Listen below [forward to 07:45]

The ECADF head admin has also said that according to his investigation, the 17 EPPF fighters who have reportedly been executed by Col. Fitsum, are alive and that they might have went to Sudan or some unknown place. The ECADF admin, who claims to have close contacts with the EPPF leadership, is contradicting EPPF’s own statement that was sent to the media yesterday and posted on ECADF’s own web site, which says that the organization doesn’t know the fighters.

None of the ECADF admins has visited EPPF. In fact, most of the ECADF admins claim to be active members of another political party. So why are they desperately trying to cover up Col. Fitsum’s crimes against Ethiopian patriots?
