UAE refers Sudan general and others to court over ammunition shipment for Sudanese army

The United Arab Emirates has referred the chief of staff of Sudan's army and 12 other defendants and six companies to its ‌State Security Court over an alleged attempt to move ammunition through UAE territory to the Sudanese army, state news agency WAM reported on Thursday.

Prosecutors said the shipment was intercepted before transfer by private aircraft and linked the procurement arrangements to a committee chaired by Sudan's army chief Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, WAM added.

The defendants face charges including illicit trafficking in military materiel, forgery and use of official documents, and laundering proceeds derived from these crimes, WAM said.

Among the defendants is Sudan's army chief of staff General Yassir al-Atta - charged in absentia - who has made fiery statements against the Gulf power.
