10 Sep 2011 07:00

Khartoum (Islam Times) - The Arabic Network for Human Rights denounced in a statement today the continued obstinacy of the Sudanese authorities to press freedoms and its targeting to inflict greater financial damage on the newspapers so they will stop revealing the information...


Islam Times: The Sudanese security forces confiscated the "Jarida" and the "Midan" newspaper in the early hours of morning of Sunday. It was prevented from distribution after the completion of its printing up so this will inflict more financial damage to them. The authorities did not give any reasons for the confiscation, as usual.

The statement said that "the Sudanese authorities do not respect freedom of opinion and expression at all, and the press and journalists are enemies to them. It practices all forms of repression and obstinacy in order to muzzle the mouths. Based on that, there is no room to believe any promises or statements from a repressive regime demanding human rights organizations to exert pressure on the Sudanese authorities to ensure press freedoms".
