An unidentified security agency arrested Ahmed Haroun, the former head of the ruling National Congress Party under Omar al-Bashir, while he was travelling from Kassala to Khartoum. His place of detention and the reasons for his arrest have not been disclosed. The International Criminal Court is pursuing him on 42 charges, including war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur. However, his defence team has ruled out the possibility that the arrest is a prelude to his transfer to the Court and plans to request a meeting with him. A rights group also reported the arrest of an activist in Blue Nile State after he called on social media for Haroun to be handed over. Haroun’s detention has raised questions about accountability for former regime leaders and the army’s relationship with Islamists.
