Sudanese activists stage demonstration in front of Justice Ministry
July 7, 2013, (KHARTOUM) – A group of Sudanese activists have demonstrated in front of the Ministry of Justice in Khartoum to protest the slow pace of the trial of those involved in the killing of 4 protesters in Kajbar area in north Sudan in 2007.
The protesters held banners saying “Justice is a meaning, not a building” in reference to the Ministry of Justice’s multi-billion high rise building in down town Khartoum.
The protesters handed over an urgent memo to the officials at the Ministry of Justice calling for referring the case to the court to investigate the perpetrators and bring them to justice.
The protest lasted for 23 minutes and demonstrators dispersed upon arrival of security forces who feared its expansion.
