KHARTOUM, Nov. 9 (Xinhua) -- A Sudanese court on Tuesday issued a ruling requiring the communications companies to immediately restore the internet service which has been blocked since Oct. 25.
"The judge of Khartoum North Court has issued a ruling on the case filed by Sudanese consumers protection society obligating the companies to immediately restore the internet service," Yasir Mirghani, head of the Sudanese consumers protection society, said in a statement.
However, despite the ruling, the internet service has not yet been brought back.
The internet service was blocked on Oct. 25 following measures adopted by the General Commander of the Sudanese Armed Forces Abdel Fattah Al-Burhan, including declaring a state of emergency and dissolving the sovereign council and the government. Enditem
