Sudan's Hamdok affirms commitment to democratic transition - source

Abdalla Hamdok says he remains committed to a civilian democratic transition after being ousted as prime minister and placed under house arrest in a military coup, a source close to him told Reuters on Wednesday.

Hamdok also affirmed his commitment to the goals of the revolution that led to the overthrow of former president Omar al-Bashir in 2019 and warned against the use of violence against protesters, the source said.
