In further efforts to help a Muslim businessman take over church property, police in Omdurman evicted two church leaders and their families from their houses on 15 August.
This was the latest show of force in a government-aided bid to help Muslim businessman Hisham Hamad Al-Neel take over the church property for investment. Police told the pastors they were carrying out a court order. The families, who remain homeless and are living on the street, said they were terrified when police pounded on the doors shouting threats.
