In June last year, the communist leader was barred from travelling to Paris, together with Maryam El Sadig El Mahdi and Mohamed Abdallah El Doma, co vice-presidents of the National Umma Party (NUP), and Fathi Nuri of the Baath Party. They were invited to participate in the European Parliament hearing on Sudan in Strasbourg on 9 June.
