A Sudanese judge on Saturday formally indicted ousted president Omar al-Bashir on charges of possessing illicit foreign currency and corruption.
Authorities "seized 6.9 million euros, $351,770 and 5.7 million Sudanese pounds at (Bashir's) home which he acquired and used illegally," said judge Al-Sadiq Abdelrahman at the third session of Bashir's trial.
The judge said illegal acquisition of wealth was punishable by up to 10 years in jail, while illicit use of foreign funds carried up to three years.
The trial was adjourned until September 7, said an Agence France Presse correspondent who attended the session.
Bashir was ousted in April after mass protests against his three-decade rule rocked Sudan for months.
Bashir was also charged in May with incitement and involvement in the killing of protesters. He has been indicted by the International Criminal Court in The Hague on charges of masterminding genocide in Sudan's Darfur region.
