In Sudan, the court supports providing access to the Internet without restrictions.

The law triumphs with battles for the benefit of civilians under dictatorial rule: this is what happens in Sudan when a judge ordered the return of Internet services to the Sudanese after its dismissal as a result of the October 25 coup..

In the past three years, Sudan has witnessed countless cases in the interruption of the Internet, and the intervention has become urgent on the current policy disaster.The government also orders to cut off the Internet during the national high school exam, known as the Sudanese certificate, as a way to prevent cheating by sending answers to those who are subject to the exam from outside the hall.These incidents sparked attention about the increasing use of stopping the Internet service in Sudan and the major region.Nevertheless, the legal foundations for stopping the Internet service are not done at all at all, although it may expand the horizon for possible ways to support against this practice..

After Omar al -Bashir was removed in 2019, Sudan was under the rule of an agreement for power between the Freedom and Change Forces (FFC) and the Transitional Military Council.This system of government has worked on the stability of the country, considering peace as the highest priority.In 2020, the government signed a Juba peace agreement with the revolutionaries and shared by the authority.Since that time, some revolutionaries have worked with the army to isolate the forces of freedom and change from rule.They stayed in October/Shawwal Issam in front of the Republican Palace, after the army commander announced a military coup that wasolated the forces of freedom and change..

The last suspension of Internet service in Sudan was on October 25, 2021 and lasted for twenty -five days.This was during the coup of the army commander, Burhan, who is the Commander -in -Chief of the Sudanese Armed Forces - the official name of the Sudanese army - and the reason for stopping the Internet service by saying that it is based on "preserving national unity and national security from the threats facing the country" as shown in the image below:

Burhan's decision to stop the Internet service.A snapshot of a picture spread on the Internet, including Facebook.

The suspension was also based on the Armed Forces Law and the Emergency Law, which are two general laws dependent on the granting of the executive authority in times of political tension.

Article 6 (d) of the Armed Forces Law acknowledges that the Sudanese Armed Forces must "confront the laws of the law specified" while Article 8 (2) of the Emergency Law and the Protection of Public Safety of 1997 grants the President the authority to legislate any order without considering the legislative authority or "the House of RepresentativesRegardless of the extent of the lack of democracy in that.

Considering that the current authority was entitled to a military coup, all the decision, accordingly, is unconstitutional, including the use of these laws.

The method of implementing the suspension of Internet service in Sudan indicates cooperation between the government and private companies equipped for Internet services for the Sudanese people.Nate Blix, is a committee to monitor the access to the Internet, and supervised the suspension of internet service in Sudan by providing a daily summary and renewed reports about the internet status in Sudan.They found that mobile phone data is only the one who closed by stopping the access point (APN), as at the 2019 event.After approximately 12 hours of closure, the Internet service returned only for two hours before stopping it again with another means.The Internet was closed for the second time by blocking any traffic from outside Sudan and directing local host services only such.

A judicial battle

Days after the coup, a coalition that includes the Sudanese Consumer Protection Organization (SCPO) was raised, and Dr..Yasser Al -Marghani, Secretary -General of the Sudanese Consumer Protection Association, SCPO, and Abdel -Azim Hassan on behalf of the Legal Lawyers Alliance Company, Salma Mohamed and Tasnim Hashem, a lawsuit that challenges the internet stopping by relying on their subscriptions contracts with telecommunications companies.On November 9, 2021, the Public Court in Khartoum ordered the provider ISPS to restore Internet services to SIM cards due to complaints.Two days later, the same court ordered the provider of internet services to restore Internet services to all subscribers throughout Sudan.

On November 11, Dhu al -Qi'dah, Al -Sadiq Jamal Al -Din, Director General of the Communications and Postal Regulatory Agency in Sudan (TPRA) issued an administrative decision directing Internet services suppliers to continue to cut off the Internet service, saying, “In implementation of the directives of the high leadership to cut off the Internet service according to the state of emergency and considering the caseEmergency is a presidential decision related to the protection of national security, which is more important than any other decision issued by any other institution.Therefore, the decision to stop the internet service is effective until another notice.

The decision of the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TPRA) depends on Article 6 (C), and Article 7.1, Article 7.2 (a) From the Law of the Communications and Postal Regulatory Authority for the year 2018, which obliges the Telecommunications and Postal Regulatory Authority the duty to “protect national security and the supreme interest of Sudan” in addition to “the state’s obligations and its requirements in the field of national security, defense and national, regional and international policies” The term “national security” is a termMy mysterious is not known, which allows the authorities to exploit their interests against the interests of the people.Also, Article 77 stipulates: The device may stop any wireless device, wireless station, or broadcasting station, temporarily or permanently if it becomes clear that it operates in a manner contrary to the provisions of this law and the regulations issued according to it.

I resume providers of the Internet service, the decision to regulate the telecommunications and mail device, and the judge refused and ordered to return the Internet services.The government ignored this guidance.Consequently, the Khartoum General Court issued an arrest warrant for the executives of telecommunications companies in Sudan, refusing to release them until the return of the Internet services to all subscribers.The Internet services are returned as a result of this with some restrictions on social media.Meanwhile, the Sudanese people are used in.with me.That (VPN) to overcome the ban. زودت شركاتٌ خاصة مثل بروتون في with me أن (Proton VPN) خدمة في.with me.That is free for the Sudanese people.

The martyr of Abdel Rahman is a legal advisor in the Lawyers Alliance, a Sudanese legal company stationed in the South African Durban, said that she did not expect that stopping Internet services would affect the legal process due to the independence of the Sudanese judiciary, and the courts continued to independence with traditional methods such as pen and paper.However, it has caused concern about the continuous court blows, as the judges continued to join civil disobedience at the national level in the face of the coup..Nevertheless, stopping Internet services remains a political challenge in Sudan."In a recent incident, the lawyers have become very adherent to securing a written commitment from the Internet service provider that prevents them from stopping the Internet, but we are still waiting for the effect of this procedure."
