The Revds Yat Michael and Peter Reith, the South Sudanese clergymen, had been released from prison following a court hearing on 5 August. The court convicted Mr Michael of participation in a criminal organisation and Mr Reith of breaching public peace.
Both were released on time served, although they were stopped at Khartoum Airport on 6 August and informed that a travel ban issued against them on 23 March was still in force. An appeal has been launched.
