    Only one civilian has internet access in Sudan right now. It is a lawyer, Abdel-Adheem Hassan

    Abdel-Adheem Hassan, a lawyer based in Sudan, is currently the only civilian with internet access in Sudan.

    According to a BBC report, Abdel-Adheem Hassan won a lawsuit against telecoms operator Zain Sudan over the blackout ordered by Sudan’s military rulers.

    However the victory only extends this privilege to him.

    The Military shut down internet connection in Sudan about three weeks ago following outrage at the spate of rape and murder carried out by the Sudanese military troops on pro-democracy protesters in the country.

    A lawyer in Sudan has told the BBC that the internet has been restored after a three-week shutdown – but only for him.

    The protesters want an end to military rule following the coup against long-time leader Omar al-Bashir in April.

    He said he is going back to court on Tuesday to win the right for more Sudanese people.

    “We have a court session tomorrow and another one the day after tomorrow. Hopefully one million people will gain internet access by the end of the week,” Mr Hassan added.

    BBC Arabic reporter Mohamed Osman in Khartoum confirms that the internet remains blocked despite Sunday’s court order.
