Sudan court sentences 27 security force members to death for torturing and killing a detained protester in the country's uprising earlier this year

Sudanese civilians wave their national flag as they gather at the freedom square during the first anniversary of the start of the uprising that toppled long-time ruler Omar al Bashir, in Khartoum, Sudan December 19, 2019

Last December, the first rally was held in Sudan to protest the soaring cost of bread, marking the beginning of a pro-democracy movement that convulsed the large African country. Monday's verdict in the trial of the security forces took place in a court in Omdurman, Khartoum's twin city, where dozens of protesters had gathered outside the courtroom, demanding justice for al Khair.

Also this month, a court in Khartoum convicted al Bashir of money laundering and corruption, sentencing him to two years in a minimum-security lockup. The image of the former dictator in a defendant's cage sent a strong message, on live TV for all of Sudan.

27 Women on the Wardrobe Staples They Live For'When I get dressed in the morning, I like to imagine myself walking into the diner in Romy & Michelle's High School Reunion and asking for the 'businesswoman special.' I basically dress for my thirteen-year-old self. It's a lot of pastels, tweed, heels and as many hair accessories as I can make office-appropriate. My favorite pieces recently have been from the brand Alessandra Rich. I'm particularly obsessed with this blazer and wear it over dresses and skirts practically daily.  Black offers a palate cleanser to whatever else I'm wearing, and the fit is super flattering. I love the square neck - it's such a cool touch. I think I need to invest in the pink version as a Christmas gift to myself.'\u2014 Nell Diamond, Founder and CEO, Hill House Home
