The former director of the Sudanese Intelligence and Security Agency Salah Gosh denied that he had responded to accusations brought against him by Mohamed Hamdan Hamidati, Vice-President of the Sovereign Council, indicating his involvement in the armed protest events for employees of the Intelligence Operations Authority last Tuesday.

The social media had circulated recently attributed to Gosh, who resides in Cairo, in response to Hamidati, asking him to provide one evidence of his accusations, indicating that he has compelling evidence confirming that the rapid support system - and with the knowledge of its leader Hamidati - is the one who killed the Sudanese people.

The Sudanese capital, Khartoum, last Tuesday witnessed an exchange of fire between a number of employees of the Operations Authority of the Intelligence Service and the Military Police in the Kfoury area of ​​Khartoum North.

In the aftermath, the Sudanese army and the Rapid Support Forces took control of all the headquarters of the operations body of the intelligence agency that witnessed what was described as the rebellion.

Later, on Thursday, the Sovereign Council that holds power during the transitional period in Sudan appointed Lieutenant-General Jamal Abdul Majeed as director of the General Intelligence Service.

The council said that it had taken the decision during its meeting with the Republican Palace after accepting the resignation of Lieutenant General Abu Bakr Mustafa Dumplab from the position of director of the agency, after the army confronted a "rebellion" movement carried out by members of the agency in rejecting the restructuring plan.

Sudanese media had said that the reason for the resignation of Lieutenant-General Demblab was due to his refusal to attack the rebel Operations Forces forces. The source said there was an agreement between Demblab and the government not to attack the operations personnel who declared their revolt.
