Sudan charges Bashir with involvement in killing of protesters: public prosecutor

Sudan has charged ousted President Omar al-Bashir with
incitement and involvement in the killing of protesters, the public
prosecutor said.

The charges came during an investigation into the death of a
medic, killed during the protests that led to the end of his
rule.

Mr Bashir has not been seen or heard from in public since he was
ousted from power on 11 April.

He was later reported to have been moved to a prison in
Khartoum.

At the beginning of May he was ordered to appear before a
prosecutor for questioning over allegations of money laundering and
terror financing.

Mr Bashir had been in power for almost 30 years when, in
December, protesters started demanding he resign.

A military council took over and is currently in power but
demonstrators are insisting that it hands over to a civilian
administration.

Talks between the military and an opposition coalition have been
taking place in an effort to establish a joint transitional body to
run the country.
