Security agents in Sudan padlocked a 500member church building on August 24, said Christian sources, who fear the government may try to sell it.
In the latest incident in a nearly two-year wave of church demolitions, closures and confiscations, Sudan’s National Intelligence and Security Services (NISS) forcibly closed the Sudan Pentecostal Church’s (SPC’s) building in Khartoum, which houses the Khartoum Christian Center (KCC).
‘The church is concerned that the building might be sold by the government, which would mean that more than 500 worshippers would have no place for worship’, said a source who requested anonymity.
