About 300 Sudanese professors and lecturers from the University of Khartoum held a sit-in protest on campus Wednesday against President Omar al-Bashir's government, a spokesman for the group said.
Deadly protests have rocked the east African country since December 19 after a government decision to triple the price of bread.
