A Sudanese university student who was acquited by a military court of having links with a rebel group has been expelled.
Saeed Mohamed Al Awad, a second year student of economics and social studies at the University of Khartoum, was accused along with other suspects of spying for the Sudan People’s Liberation Army-North.
He was arrested by security operatives in Abu Kershola town in South Kordofan but a military court acquitted him due to lack of evidence.
Speaking to Radio Tamazuj on Thursday, Awad said the University administration informed him of his dismissal following his long absence from attending lectures.
Awad said he is still receiving verbal threats by security agents on his own mobile phone.
The released student said he suffered health trouble while in detention and is now receiving treatment.
