30/5/19: Sudan Tribune – British lawmakers warn against arrest of SPLM-N deputy leader

Sudan Tribune reports that the British All-Party Parliamentary Group for Sudan and South Sudan (APPG) warned against the arrest of Sudanese rebel Yasir Arman, saying it will negatively impact the relations of the TMC with the international community.

 "If the Transitional Military Council arrests or deports returning politicians then they can no longer be considered to have any desire to hand over power to a civilian-led government, and this will seriously affect relations with the international community," wrote Sir Henry Bellingham and MP David Drew, APPG’s Chair and Vice Chair respectively.

 Arman who is also the Foreign Affairs Secretary of the Sudan Call Alliance told Sudan Tribune that he has no intention to leave the country.
