Sudan security forces 'carry out raid' ahead of mass protest
Sudan's main opposition group says security forces raided its office and blocked a press conference on the eve of mass protests against military rule.
The "million-strong march" is in opposition to the military council's refusal to hand control to civilians following Omar al-Bashir's removal. The Sudanese Professionals Association (SPA) said in a tweet that it "condemns this repressive behaviour". It insisted the protests would go ahead on Sunday
The SPA had organised a media briefing on Saturday evening to unveil plans for the rally, which will be the first mass demonstration since dozens were killed when the military opened fire on pro-democracy protesters on 3 June

Protest leader Ahmed al-Rabie told AFP that the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) had broken up the media briefing.
"Before we could start the press conference, three vehicles from RSF, full of armed men, came to our building and told us not to hold the press conference," he said.
Everyone in the building was ordered to leave, Mr al-Rabie said.
He told Reuters the raid was "a violation of liberties that is even worse than the regime of the former president". Omar al-Bashir was ousted as Sudan's president in April.
