Reverend Yehya Abdurrahim, the head of Evangelical Church in Khartoum said that three church leaders of Khartoum North were summoned after rejecting a judicial order to demolish a building belonging to the church recently.
The priest told Radio Tamazuj that the summons comes after several Sudanese pastors and evangelists at the Evangelical Church in Khartoum North protested over grabbing of church land.
He further said the investor who claims the land opened a case with the police accusing the church of trespassing, a claim denied by the church leaders.
Yehya pointed out the church members are still continuing with protests. He added that they are demanding restoration of all plots grabbed previously from the Evangelical Church in Khartoum by the authorities.
The church leader stressed that the demand has also gone as far as claiming back all the properties of other Christian denominations in Sudan.
