On 14 November a judge in eastern Sudan ordered a Christian school, that had been taken over by government officials, to resume classes under the prior Christian administration, according to the headmaster.
The Appeal Court for Administrative Affairs in Madani, Al Jazirah state, thus cancelled an order by the Madani commissioner calling for the closure of the Evangelical Basic School, which armed police along with civilians from Khartoum and elsewhere had seized on 24 October, said the Revd Samuel Suleiman Anglo, headmaster at the school.
‘The court has ordered that the school continue to function with the current administration without interference from the commissioner. Things are normal, thank God.’
