 Former Sudan President Omar al-Bashir has been charged with corruption.

 The charges are related to laws on "suspected illicit wealth and emergency orders", the public prosecutor's office said, without giving more details.

 Al Bashir was overthrown and arrested on 11 April after three decades of authoritarian rule. He has not been seen publicly since he was detained.

In May he was charged with incitement and involvement in the killing of protesters.
