1/12/2019: Radio Dabanga - Islamist accused of inciting violence at University of Khartoum

Radio Dabanga reports that the University of Khartoum has accused one of Sudan’s most prominent Islamists Dr Mohamed El Jazouli, head of the Salafist Nusrat El Sharia and the Advocacy of State of Law, and his party’s members of inciting violence and insulting the University of Khartoum administration at the University’s mosque.

El Jazouli – who has been vocal in his support of his support for Islamic State – encouraged those who attended the sermon at the mosque of the University of Khartoum “to get ready and prepare for self-sacrifice against the transitional government”.

He also encouraged the army to seize power, dissolve the transitional government, annul the signed constitutional document, and called for an early election.

The university confirmed that it will take legal action against El Jazouli to prevent such hate speech and inciting violence from occurring in the future.
