Sudan’s ruling junta released 14 detainees from various prisons and detention centres in Sudan on Monday, the first day of Eid El Fitr, the three-day Muslim festival that marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan.
The authorities released Wajdi Saleh, the leader of the Empowerment Removal Committee (ERC) yesterday, as well as Tayeb Othman, Babiker Faisal, Mohammed Saati, and Mohammed El Faki. The ERC leader’s bail was set at 15 million Sudanese Pounds (SDG).
