Sudanese protest against the storming by

Sudanese protest against the storming by security forces of the offices of two newspapers in the capital Khartoum on May 20, 2010. Sudanese security officers stormed two newspapers yesterday tearing up articles ready for printing, employees said, despite a 2009 presidential decree promising to lift press censorship. Authorities went to the offices of the Ajras al-Hurriya, which is linked to the former southern rebel Sudan People's Liberation Movement and the independent daily Al-Sahafa, and confiscated articles. Sudan boasts around 30 titles in both English and Arabic published daily to represent all persuasions -- pro-government, Islamist or communist -- and showcase the country's multi-faceted political make-up.
