Sudan's former President has appeared in public for the first time since arrest

Journalists were invited to witness the prosecution of Sudan's former dictator, Omar Al Bashir, at Kober prison. Al Bashir, who was overthrown nine weeks ago, made his first public appearance in months. He faces charges of corruption and possession of foreign currency but will not be sent to the International Criminal Court despite being wanted for genocide. The ruling generals believe prosecuting Al Bashir domestically will gain public favor, though some officials were reluctant to allow media presence. The military's actions are seen as a distraction from recent protests, with accusations of them labeling protesters as troublemakers.
