Sudanese Protesters Beaten

It's funny really. The Sudanese government has no problem allowing demonstrations against Israel or UN troops. However when the people protest against it they beat them up.


Riot police fired teargas and beat a journalist in central Khartoum on Wednesday as opposition parties and supporters gathered to demonstrate against a recent rise in petrol and sugar prices, witnesses said.

A Reuters witness saw riot police snatch a TV camera from an Al Jazeera journalist filming the crowd. The police chased him, beating him with sticks while firing teargas at those around.

Riot police carrying batons and shields sped in trucks through the streets of central Khartoum dispersing any crowd attempting to demonstrate.




Yaaay to Sudanese freedom of speech.

Why is there a rise in petrol and sugar prices in Sudan if the Chinese are presently investing billions in Sudan?

The rise isn't due to supply and demand as they claim. It's done on purpose. They just felt like making more money than they're making right now.

PS: about a third of Sudan's economy is hidden and many transactions go unrecorded.

How come everybody says he's late and I just see this today? *0-0*

Drima, my man ;-) you're in the spring of your life and kindergarten will always be within you because that's the basis on which everything else has grown.

Personally I made a vow when I was 9 or 10 NEVER to become a "grown-up" and I pretty well stuck to it, LOL.

Happy Birthday and till 120 !

Tse.
