The National Intelligence and Security Service (NISS) confiscated the printed copies ofandnbsp;El Tayarandnbsp;newspaper on Tuesday from the printing press for the second time this week.
The security apparatus did not provide any reasons for the confiscation. A journalist fromandnbsp;El Tayarandnbsp;said in Sudanese media that an officer from the NISS arrived at the printing press early Tuesday morning to order the confiscation of copies, before distribution to the capital city and state capitals.
El Tayarandnbsp;lost around SDG100,000 ($14,870) in the costs of printing, advertisements and salaries because of the confiscation, the journalist estimated. Copies were also seized last Saturday whenandnbsp;El Tayarandnbsp;decided to publish an interview with the chairman of the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N).
