The Sudanese police vowed to face what they called “the remnants of the former regime” with a strong and decisive move over their insistence to commit destabilizing acts in the capital and other provinces.
The Director General of the Police Forces, Lieutenant General Ezzeddine Sheikh Ali Mansour, said that the police would confront “the remnants of the former regime” in a strong and resolute manner, denouncing the aggression on the premises of the committee for dismantling the ousted June 30 regime in Port-Sudan city.
Mansour noted that the attack has prompted the security authorities to hold an immediate meeting of the Technical Committee of the Security and Defense Council, headed by a member of the Sovereignty Council, Lieutenant General Yasser Al-Ataa, Chairman of the Committee for Dismantling the Ousted June 30 Regime, in the presence of the Ministers of Defense and Interior and other officials.
Mansour added that the leadership of the police forces, based on the recommendations of the meeting, issued a number of directives to ensure the protection of the headquarters of the said committee and its employees, as well as the properties placed under its authority.
He rejected such aggressions, stating that the dismantling committee was carrying out its duties in line with the constitution and the law.
By virtue of a law issued last year, the committee for dismantling the ousted June 30 regime was given the authority to abolish public posts, terminate the service of officials who obtained jobs through nepotism, dissolve profit and non-profit organizations, request reports and information from state institutions, and summon people to provide information and access. The committee is also entrusted with seizing bank accounts of persons, institutions and companies, for the purpose of dismantling the former regime.
Since its launch, the committee has dealt with major corruption cases by the symbols of the former Islamist regime, and reclaimed misappropriated real estate, companies, and shares.
