A prominent Sudanese politician has been released from jail one day before the civilian coalition he belonged to was due to sign an initial deal with the military to end a political standoff triggered by an October 2021 coup.
Leftist politician Wagdi Salih, who was freed on Sunday at a police station in the capital Khartoum, was at the forefront of an anti-corruption committee set up after the removal of longtime Sudanese ruler Omar al-Bashir in 2019.
