Sudan's Bashir Faces Verdict In Corruption Trial

Former Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir is due to appear in court in Khartoum on Saturday to hear the verdict in his corruption trial.



Al-Bashir, 75, faces charges of corruption, possession of foreign currency and receiving gifts illegally



He was removed from power by the military in April after months of popular protests against his 30-year rule.



After his overthrow, authorities seized 7 million euros, $351,000 and 5 million Sudanese pounds from al-Bashir's home.



Since his ouster, al-Bashir has been held in Kober prison in Khartoum. -
