On the Sudanese opposition

The Sudanese minister of the interior Lt. Gen. Abdul Rahim Hussein has announced that the government will not permit any political organization or an opposition party of a military wing the right to practice political activity inside Sudan.

In a statement issued on Friday by the Sudanese daily al-Sahafa the minister denied news that his government permitted the return back of Yasser Armaan, the official spokesman for the rebel movement to Khartoum in order to lead open political activity inside Sudan in his answer to statements made by the advisor for the chairman of the rebel movement Mansour Khaled.

Hussein explained that any political organization that wants to practice its open political work has to declare giving up "hostile" media work and reject all forms of violence.
