A very bad leader, Omar al-Bashar of Sudan, is overthrown:
On the evening of 10 April 2019, Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir was removed from power by the Sudanese Armed Forces amidst the 2018–19 Sudanese protests.[1] The Sudanese military dissolved the cabinet and the National Legislature, and announced a 3-month state of emergency, to be followed by a 2-year transition period.[2] Ahmed Awad Ibn Auf, who was both Sudan's defense minister and vice-president declared himself the de facto Head of State, announced the suspension of the country's constitution, and imposed a curfew from 10 pm to 4 am, effectively ordering the dissolution of the ongoing protests. State media reported that all political prisoners, including anti-Bashir protest leaders, were being released from jail.[3] al-Bashir's National Congress party responded by announcing that they would hold a rally supporting the ousted president.[4] Soldiers also raided the offices of the Islamic Movement, the main ideological wing of the National Congress, in Khartoum.[5]
Several officials have been reportedly detained: Prime Minister Mohamed Taher Ayala, Ahmed Haroun (the head of the ruling National Congress Party), member of the National Congress Awad Al-Jaz, former defense minister Abdel Rahim Mohammed Hussein, and former vice presidents Bakri Hassan Saleh and Ali Othman Taha.[6]
