Khartoum -Sudanhorizon
Sudan is taking part in the ninth meeting of the Arab Experts Team on Combating Cybercrime, held from July 30-31, 2026, in the Tunisian capital. The Sudanese delegation is led by the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Justice, Mawlana Ali Khader.
The Undersecretary of the Ministry of Justice stated that it was essential to enact legislation to combat cybercrime, noting the establishment of controls for such crimes. He emphasized the principle of the supremacy of the Cybercrime Law in cases of conflict with any other law, particularly given the direct threat these crimes pose to national sovereignty and the disintegration of social cohesion.
He added that a Cybersecurity Agency has been established, drawing on the experiences of other countries and the rest of the world. Furthermore, strict licensing standards have been set and adhered to, along with penalties for various violations of the law, ranging from warnings to license revocation, with harsher penalties to curb these crimes.
The Undersecretary of the Ministry of Justice emphasized that crimes stemming from artificial intelligence require precise legal definitions and the enactment of legislation specifying the necessary penalties to combat them. He called for the adoption of a unified Arab law that would benefit all Arab countries.
