Sudan releases Al Jazeera bureau chief: The arrest of Al-Musalami al-Kabbashi was the latest since a military coup three weeks ago and came after tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets on Saturday to demand a transition to civilian rule.
Sudanese authorities released Al Jazeera television’s Khartoum bureau chief on Tuesday, the Qatar-based network said, two days after security forces arrested him from his home.
Kabbashi, a Sudanese citizen, “was released on Tuesday… the military has yet to give a reason for his detention,” the network said. Al Jazeera has given prominent coverage to the anti-coup demonstrations, but has also aired a detailed interview with top general Abdel Fattah al-Burhan. Judicial decisions have been disregarded on several occasions since the coup. Lawyer Enaam Attik said that prosecutors had ordered the release of 50 people arrested during Saturday’s rallies but “police took them to an unknown location”.Burhan declared a state of emergency on 25 October, ousted the government and detained the civilian leadership.
