Sudan's top court to issue verdict in corruption trial of former Sudanese President Omar Bashir
Sudan's former president Omar al Bashir sits inside a cage at the courthouse where he is facing corruption charges, in Khartoum, Sudan on August 31, 2019.
While the former president admitted to having received a total of $90 million from Saudi leaders, the trial centres on the $25 million received from Saudi Arabia's de facto ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.The funds, he said, formed part of Sudan's strategic relations with Saudi Arabia and were "not used for private interests but as donations".
Bashir has been wanted by the ICC for years for his role in the Darfur war that broke out in 2003, when ethnic minority rebels took up arms against his Arab-dominated government which they accused of marginalising the region.
