Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent discussions he had had with the Sudanese Foreign Minister, Ibrahim Ghandour, on the detention without charge of Sidgi Kaballo.

The UK Ambassador, Chargé d’Affaires, and the Special Representative for Sudan continue to raise the UK’s deep concerns about the continued detention of Dr Kaballo with the Sudanese Foreign Minister and senior officials. We continue to urge the Government of Sudan to release Dr Kaballo, and all those who have been recently detained. We did so most recently in a meeting with the Sudanese Ambassador to the UK in London on 20 March.
