Sudan’s Ousted Prime Minister, Abdalla Hamdok Calls for Reinstatement

Sudan’s ousted Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok says the reinstatement of his government, dissolved in a military coup, could pave the way to a solution in the country.

According to the Information Ministry, Abdalla Hamdok spoke during a meeting with ambassadors of the United States, Britain and Norway at his home, where he is under house arrest.

Thousands of Sudanese nationals had staged a demonstration on Saturday marching against the army’s October 25 power grab, where top General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan dissolved the government, declared a state of emergency and detained Sudan’s civilian leadership.

Soldiers from the army and the much-feared paramilitary Rapid Support Forces were seen on many streets in Khartoum and Omdurman
