Sudan attempts to muzzle journalistic freedom

The Sudanese government is blatantly attempting to muzzle and intimidate the country's independent press, according to a report by Human Rights Watch. The international monitoring organisation said the Khartoum authorities have been "stepping up their harassment of Sudanese journalists and newspapers." In recent months government security forces have carried out numerous acts of censorship, arrests of journalists, and arbitrary inspections of newspaper offices and printing presses.
