Sudanese protest against President Al-Bashir in Cairo
 [Al Ahram] Dozens of Sudanese protesters chanted against Sudanese President Omar Al-Bashir in front of Al-Ahram premises in Cairo on Wednesday, as a Sudanese delegation paid a visit to Al-Ahram Centre for Political and Strategic Studies.It's much safer than it is to demonstrate in Khartoum. Accompanied by police personnel holding batons, demonstrators held placards condemning the "crimes" committed by Al-Bashir's regime against children and citizens. Speaking over a microphone, protesters chanted: "Post-revolution Egypt should not deal with the criminal regime of Al-Bashir." Other chants demanded condemnation of the "Darfur atrocities." Executive Chairman of the Darfur Regional Authority Tijani Sese, Sudanese investment minister Mostafa Osman, and Sudanese ambassador to Cairo Kamal El-Din Hassan were invited to take part in a forum at the Al-Ahram Centre for Political and Strategic Studies in downtown Cairo. The protest prompted a delay in their arrival, and the delegation eventually entered through a back door. Posted by: Fred 2013-03-14 |
