Quote: Quote: Thanks to Ammar for pointing to the Retired Major General Almardi. Infact his name is Mohamed Mamoun Almardi. In my paper on "Sudanese Army and Politics: The Role of the Ideological Parties," and my interviews with several retired army officers, I came to know his role. Major General Almardi played a major role in establishing the armed wing of the Islamic Movement since 1970s. He was the first leader of the armed wing. In the early 1980s, Colonel Mukhtar Mohamdeen replaced him as the leader of the wing till his death in 1988. After the death of Colonel Mohamdeen in the airplane crash in 1988, Almardi assumed the leader ship of the armed wing of the Islamic Movement. He played a major role in the planning process of the infamous June 30th military coup. He became the minister of Public Works. He was well connected with Turabi, and he used to say that " He is the defacto prime minister" He died in 1990. Finally, he was the second husband of Zainb, Carlos'the Jackal's girl friend whom you have written about in a previous pos (عدل بواسطة عرفات حسين on 07-03-2013, 02:17 PM)
