Sudan national security confiscates print runs of two papers

The security bureau on Monday confiscated issues of Ajras Al Hurriya (‘Bells of Freedom’) and Al Watan (‘The Nation’) newspapers after they were printed. The security did not give any reason for the confiscation. Journalists from Al Watan newspaper said that that their administration received a warning that security men would be coming to take the issues at ten in the morning but it refused while the journalists of Ajras Al Hurriya said that the confiscation could be because of the coverage of the events of South Sudan.
