While the military junta in Sudan has released some detainees, several are still imprisoned, despite the undertaking in the political agreement signed in Khartoum on Sunday by Gen Abdelfattah El Burhan and Sudan’s Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok, that stipulates the release of all political detainees. The resistance forces have called on the public to take to the streets again tomorrow in an unrelenting campaign of civil disobedience to the coup, and the political agreement.
Several initiatives have been launched in Khartoum last week, to defuse tensions between various components of the Sudanese government. The Forces for Freedom and Change, an important partner in the transitional government, is internally divided as well.
