Sudan group in legal challenge to independence vote | Top News | ReutersLawyers for a Sudanese campaign group launched a legal bid on Sunday to halt Sudan's referendum on southern independence, accusing organisers of mishandling the process, a move which could derail the January 9 vote.
A group calling itself the Society Organisation Network instructed lawyers to take the case to court, accusing the referendum commission of placing SPLM members in senior posts and saying southerners in the north had been prevented from registering for the vote.
Good.
The referendum should be prevented. The colonial borders of Africa cannot be changed nor should the Pandora's box be opened
