KHARTOUM: Sudan's ruling generals must swiftly hand power to civilians if they are to regain the trust they lost after a deadly crackdown on protesters this month, Britain's envoy to Khartoum has said.

Sudanese protesters set up roadblocks in Khartoum to try and prevent authorities' attempts to break up the sit-in demanding civilian rule AFP/ASHRAF SHAZLY"At the end of the day, it is the security forces who conducted these raids and led to the killings of the people," Siddiq said in an interview at his official residence in Khartoum.

The initial findings of a military investigation showed that"officers and soldiers of different ranks and regular forces" had entered the sit-in itself without orders from their superiors, the investigating committee said. "I could hear the shooting and it seemed to me that it was pretty clear to me what was happening, which is why I made my statement," he said.
