Sudan's al-Bashir convicted, sent to 'reform facility'

Sudan's al-Bashir convicted, sent to 'reform facility'

Sudan's former President Omar al-Bashir has been found guilty of corruption and sentenced to two years in detention.

But the 75-year-old will not serve his time in prison, instead, he will be sent to a reform centre for elderly people.

The trial centred around suitcases filled with more than $130m found in al-Bashir's home.

Al Jazeera's Hiba Morgan reports from the capital, Khartoum.
