Khartoum: Protest leaders are to hold talks Saturday with Sudan's military rulers who have so far resisted calls to transfer power to a civilian administration, a head figure in the protests told AFP.
"The military council will hold talks with the Alliance for Freedom and Change at 8:00 pm (1800 GMT) today," said Siddiq Yousef, a senior member of the umbrella group leading the protest movement.
