Background
Despite the formal ending of press censorship in Sudan in December 2002, official pressure and restrictions on the media has continued. The government has censored independent newspapers more than a dozen times over the past year. The authorities have drawn what has been termed a ‘red line’ to newspapers about the following issues:
The peace process Abduction of women and children Arrests and releases of political activities or human rights defenders Any information or news about the security forces Any news or information about the Popular National Congress and its leader, Hassan Al Turabi And recently any information or news on Darfour current confilict
In addition to these issues, restrictions have also been brought to bear on newspapers for their handling of the October student demonstrations, and of sexual health issues, notably female circumcision.
SOAT condemns the continuing restrictions on freedom of expression in Sudan and urges the Government to:
i) Cease the imposition of suspensions, pre-printing and post-printing censorship on newspapers, and allow full freedom of expression in accordance with international human rights standards.
ii) Allow proper research, discussion and dissemination of information on issues related to press freedom
iii) Guarantee the respect of human rights and fundamental freedoms throughout Sudan in accordance with national laws and international human rights standards.
The above recommendations should be sent in appeals to the following addresses:
