More than a thousand angry demonstrators chanting anti-western slogans massed in Khartoum on Thursday in the biggest protest yet against the International Criminal Court’s indictment of the Sudanese president for genocide in Darfur.
It signalled the government was stepping up the second part of its twin track response to the indictment of Omar al-Bashir, which combines rallying diplomatic opposition to the court overseas and stoking public indignation at home to boost support for the president.
