2:04 pm
general's arrested several civilly members of the governing sovereign council, and moved prime minister de la hun dog did undisclosed location. the inc, annette and phone lines are disrupted. and the airport, in cartoon flows, the pro democracy coalition, born out of the 2019, are pricing that ousted long time leader, omar. but she has court for protests and strikes to resist what it thinks is a military coup. last month of field qu, attempt by forces loyal to the she widen, divisions between the military and civilian sides of the transitional, government. both sides, blame each other for slow reforms, a worsening economic crisis, poverty and corruption. the deal that was signed in august of 2018 was always flawed in number of ways. after me, 2 of the biggest flaws were that the military, when it maintained control of gold mines and other financial interests sort of
2:05 pm
independent of the state in that somewhat corrupt manner. and that they were never really going to investigate themselves enough for the massacres of june. 2019 the heart, one gains of the pro democracy uprising have not lead to reforms. many people fought for. and now with more political upheaval, sedan, it's once again on the edge. priyanka gupta, al jazeera hurts, take you now through what we know about who's actually been arrested. most members of sedan, civilian leadership. and that includes members of the transitional sovereignty council were detained by the military. starting at the top with prime minister of de la hun, docos, taken to an unknown location according to the culture and information ministry. his media advisor, pfizer, mohamad seller, has been detained. so has mohammed al fucking suleiman, who's a spokesman for the sovereign council, and has been pretty vocal in criticizing the military along with the minister of industry abraham l shape and the minister of information hums up below all placed
2:06 pm
under arrests. and then we have to think about how sedan reached this point because it goes back really to december of 2018. there were thousands of people out in the northeast and region about barra protesting against high unemployment poverty and corruption. within days these protests had moved to other cities including the capital counter, april 2019. this is pivotal. the military removed president omar bashir from office . he had been the president for nearly 30 years and 4 months later, after accusations of using violence against protest is the military agreed to form this civilian lead transitional government. and your cabinet took office in september under prime minister conduct. this was a 3 here power sharing agreements well in place to introduce a boat mendoza, who is the director of southern africa, political economy series trust and has also worked with the now detained sudanese prime minister abdullah hancock. he's with us from her aryans and bob, which is i thank you for your time. so what have you made of the events today?
2:07 pm
the military is trying to say that it had a duty that it had to do this. i wonder if i've just taken the for them easier option yeah, that's proverbial is rich. when comes the military, best, especially in a country like you done with it, becomes, is generalized over the tickets are what are my main concern is the safety of those were under house arrest, including my, my brother and colleague are humble or concerned about their safety and the hoping that such cost as outages it is being held in safeguarding via security done elsewhere here in the region here. what's the position that he was in prior to this with all is in fighting between the, the military and the civilian government. i mean, could he have ever made
2:08 pm
a difference and, and, and, and, and had, you know, been able to give the people what they wanted that, that civilian rule. i think in terms of the, of the the transitional authority arrangements the you as a deal compromise and academic as intellectual civil servant, patriots. a brave man. you're there deal. and i think for the last 2 years since he has been in the office, i think he has done well. that was the whole idea of, of this, you know, civilian slash, military, transitional government. maybe that was just floored in the 1st place in the military will always move back to force if needs, if they need to know if they feel anything it's from the very beginning of the structure of the sort already in which you had 4 civilians. i
2:09 pm
think in the 6 civilian formula, the laws clear that the will 2 or more dominant by definition, they control the arms of the states. they've been in office for tickets. so the number game was deceptive. and each if spoke to her then and she had an uncomfortable dominance of the middle sheet. and then it was always going to be a difficult journey to civilian rule. and the military says it wants to continue that journey. it is saying where on the timeline for elections in 2023 and that will still happen. that's actually still quite a long way away. and so much can and probably will happen. why away you got the the took the i think i think i think that yeah,
2:10 pm
been debbie. listen to will about what they're doing. especially given the backdrop of what happened the last 2 weeks where the, the, the forces will change and speedo had a bed splits between those were orange, sustain the journey to civilian rule. and those. busy will appear to be in alliance with the movie and the letter just reviewed and the but at the can be no that can be no illusion to solace to the plans of the nursery. definitely to be as 2. ready to anybody will care to understand the crisis that they, i, in fact impeding progress to a civilian if i'm and i'm really glad you could join us today to talk through this and, and bring your inside. thank you. then the pleasure. thank you for having me

2:14 pm
that the political story, but then this did their everyday life isn't there. and that's what underlies all of us. the fact that people continue to struggle and governments be it civilian, transitional, military, whatever, haven't addressed it yet. and by the way, this particular argument here, i mean, is used now what much more strongly by the people who support the military. they say they say we gave you an appeal to gave the civilian government enough time, 3 years is enough time. but what did they do that the com is going down the drain, the, the, the, the, this with and his pound, you know, the inflation rate is unbelievable here. and we can't, i mean the used to, i mean, now the prices are 300 percent higher than, than the end than when our bishop was in. and i guess the civilian side was i actually, it was use the, it was the military side. it didn't allow, i thought it just blaming it, was it? when we, when we, by the, when we say the civilian, we have to, we have 2 streets now pro military civilian states and florida solutions civilian slit. and we have mr. behind himself, who says the military,

2:26 pm
1st time urban areas, areas like cobble in the main cities are facing the same rate of food insecurities as the rural areas. there are various reasons for this, but the main one also recently compounded by the fact that the international community is withholding billions and billions of dollars of much needed money here everyone. we've spoken to whether they're civil servants under the taliban government taliban fighters, people who work in the health sector, nurses, people who work in centers of drug rehabilitation. they have not been paid their salaries and months. people do not have the cash to feed themselves. also recently a couple of weeks ago, even world food program saying that only 5 percent of households across the country are getting enough to eat so desperate times you're really going to get worse with the onset of winter temperatures dropping below freezing. here it'll snow, it will be wet, and also the aid agencies warning that many people who are displaced will be cut off for much needed aid and russia briefly. also quoting for the international

2:28 pm
and by all accounts minding his own business. when new york police officers accused him of selling lou cigarettes outside a convenience store, daniel pen to leo, one of the officers on seen, put gardener in a cho, cold, and prohibited under department use of force guidelines. and that led to the death of the 46 year old father of 6, a grand jury decision not to charge pen to leo sparked nationwide protests, gardeners dying words. i can't breathe, became a national rallying cry against police brutality. 5 years later, pennsylvania was fired from the new york police department, and the city settled a wrongful death claim, with gardener's family for several $1000000.00. but 7 years on gardener's mother, gwen carr says there is still work to be done. there is no justice for eric, eric is gone, but we still need closure and closure. what look like to me?
2:29 pm
if all those offices who was involved in my son's death that day, stand accountable. and there was transparency and which we know all of that was try and tried to be hidden. a judge granted when cars request to hold a judicial inquiry into her son's death. such inquiries are very rare. the last time one was held here in new york was over a 100 years ago, and it's not a trial. there will not be a jury, and nobody will be found guilty or innocent when it's over. but it's a way for lawyers to question powerful people that dealt with gardeners, death, and a way to get a public record of who knew what when and why certain decisions were made. in a setback to the gardener family, the judge decided new york mayor bill de blasio does not have to testify saying he can instead submit a written statement despite being directly named in the inquiry. one. critics say
2:30 pm
that reasoning undermines the very point of what the inquiries meant to address transparency. how do we whole our public leaders accountable if they are allowed to just submit statements, right? when you're named on a case and you're not being called to be active, participating, vocal and under sworn oh, it's a pass. the city fought against. holding the inquiry, arguing it was unnecessary. a spokesperson for the city's lawyers declined to request for an interview. gabriel sandow. ouch! is eda new york? ah, this is al jazeera, these are the top stores a military coup is unfolded in sudan in the last few hours. the military chief, dissolved the government and declared a national state of emergency. speaking on national television
