 Sudanese prosecutors said that security agents guarding the house of former spy chief Salah Gosh, prevented policemen and prosecutors from arresting him, despite a warrant issued by anti-graft authorities.

 Gosh, the former head of Sudan’s National Intelligence and Security Services (NISS), was to be questioned over a bank account containing ($1 billion) which was only accessible to him, the prosecutor’s office said.

However, “the force that was guarding the house of the accused, which is affiliated with NISS, stopped the order from being executed," the prosecutors office said.
