Khartoum local authorities have announced arrangements for designating several locations to collect looted items recovered from citizens following the liberation of Khartoum. These items are currently held at police stations.

The locality’s periodic revenue meeting, held today, Sunday, and chaired by Acting Executive Director Kamal Awad Al-Karim Mustafa, confirmed that these locations were selected in accordance with state directives, paving the way for citizens to identify and reclaim their belongings according to established legal procedures.

In a related matter, the meeting revealed that priority will be given to markets operating within the locality in the distribution of new electricity transformers, along with strategic locations targeted for power restoration, in implementation of directives from the Higher Committee for Environmental Improvement in Khartoum State.

The meeting also instructed directors of administrative units to pay field visit to the markets targeted for organization and rehabilitation to finalize the work plan. This will be accompanied by intensive campaigns to remove waste, debris, war remnants, and weeds, and to eliminate haphazard and unregulated activities.
