KHARTOUM (Reuters) – Sudan’s ruling Transitional Military Council warned on Monday against blocking roads and “controlling the movement of citizens” and said all routes are to be opened immediately, amid continuing protests that forced the president to resign.

It also said in a statement that “some young people exercising the role of the police and security services in clear violation of the laws and regulations” was unacceptable.
