CAIRO (AP) — Thousands of Sudanese have taken to the streets in the capital of Khartoum to renew their demand for a civilian government. Thursday’s rallies came just days after the military signed a power-sharing deal with the prime minister, after releasing him from house arrest and reinstating him as head of government. The deal came almost a month after the generals orchestrated a coup that saw the premier deposed and dozens of politicians and activists detained. Meanwhile, Sudanese Doctors Committee, which is part of the pro-democracy movement said that 17 people were killed in clashes between Arab and non-Arab tribes in the restive province of West Darfur last week.
