Burning injustice: Sudanese protestors continue push to for civilian rule

-

Sudanese pro testers burn tyres as they block Nile Street for the second consecutiv­e day during continuing protests in Sudan’s capital Khartoum.

While angry demonstrat­ors blocked the major avenue along the Nile river, Sudan’s army rulers and protest leaders resumed crucial talks over handing power to a civilian administra­tion after a deadlock in negotiatio­ns.

The much-awaited discussion­s came with crowds of protesters still camped outside the army headquarte­rs in central Khartoum, vowing to force the ruling military council to cede power in the same way they drove longtime leader Omar al-bashir from office. Al-bashir was imprisoned in the capital days after the military removed him from power.
