Sudan's transitional authorities approve law to dissolve the former ruling party, repeal public order law used to regulate women's behaviour
A train carrying protesters from Atbara, the birthplace of an uprising that toppled Sudan's former president Omar al Bashir, approaches a Khartoum train station to support demonstrators camped at a sit-in outside the defence ministry compound in Khartoum, Sudan on April 23, 2019.
“This law is notorious for being used as a tool of exploitation, humiliation & violation of rights,” Prime Minister Abdallah Hamdok tweeted in reference to the overturned law. Sudan’s sovereign council and cabinet announced both decisions after a fourteen-hour long meeting that ended shortly after midnight on Thursday.
Pro-democracy groups in the country have also held fresh protests demanding the former ruling party’s disbandment and the exclusion of all its remnants from different state institutions.
