Yasir Mirghani, a pharmacist who leads a Sudanese consumer-rights organization, was arrested in April 2023 on embezzlement charges tied to decade-old EU funding. He was released after a week in detention near a conflict zone, on a personal guarantee and with the charges still pending. He had been detained before, in 2015 and in December 2022.
