Protestor Hussein Abdelgader (14) from El Jereif East in Khartoum North, who was shot by security forces during the Marches of the Millions on October 21<\/a>, has died in hospital yesterday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Abdelgader is the second protestor who has been shot dead in El Jereif East. Protestor Mohamed Abdelmajeed was killed<\/a> during the march itself when Sudanese security forces used live munition to disperse the crowd. Several others were wounded and taken to hospitals.<\/p>\n

Members of El Jereif East Resistance Committees continue their sit-in in front of the Khartoum-El Jereif East bridge. They announced that more protests will follow.<\/p>\n

One of the activists stated that the officer that shot Abdelmajeed also fired at Abdelgader. She said the Resistance Committees reject the formation of an investigation committee<\/a>, because these kind of committees never lead to the arrest of perpetrators.<\/p>\n

Representatives of the El Jereif East Resistance Committees met with Khartoum Governor Ayman Nimir on Saturday. The governor pledged he would not dismantle the sit-in by force. He also said that he had conveyed the demands of the protestors to the Council of Ministers, the Director General of the Sudanese Police Forces and the Public Prosecution Office.<\/p>\n
