The Sudanese opposition National Congress Party Head Dr Hassan Al Turabi, announced he would not attend the Islamic Movement general conference on Thursday. The Justice and Human Rghts official in the National Congress Abdullah Hassan Hussein, denied in a press conference in Khartoum any link between his party and the coup attempt which occurred last week in the state. He said that toppling the Sudanese regime was a strategic target for the opposition which happens through revolutions and peaceful demonstrations. Turabi’s deputy Dr Abdullah Hassan Ahmad said in a previous interview with Arabstoday that the Islamic movement in Sudan is controlled by the government, as none of its members has been able to define it so far. The journalist Fatah Al Rahman Al Galy wrote in an article on Sunday: \"While organising its conference,  the Islamic movement should know that it has come to a crossroad,  amd if they depend on conspiracies, they will lose much.” In a statement to Arabstoday, member of the ruling party Rabea Abdul Aty said that the Islamic movement “has presented intensive support to the political, social, and economic fields. The movement is not afraid of political separation, the movement has the option to choose a new secretary general and its new constitution in a clear and transparent way.\" North Kordofan governor Motasem Zaki El Deen said that the Islamic movement must be subjected to several reviews in order to process the defects that have appeared in the ruling party in Sudan the National Congress Party, including tribal biases and personal disputes and that their problems must be recognised and solved through the Islamic movement\".
