Sudanese security forces on Sunday confiscated all copies of an independent newspaper as the government continues a media crackdown.

The chief editor of al-Ahdath newspaper, Adil al-Baz, told reporters that no explanation was given when troops seized all copies as they came off the printer.

This is not the first time Sudan's government has moved against the country's media, despite a constitution that calls for a free press.
