(ANSA) - ROME, OCTOBER 25 - Unidentified soldiers have besieged the home of Prime Minister of Sudan Abdalla Hamdok, declaring him under house arrest.

Al Hadath TV reports them, quoted by al Jazeera.


    The ministers of industry and information and an advisor to the premier have also been arrested.


    "Access to telecommunications has been limited" - you know al Jazeera from Khartoum - "so it is very difficult to obtain information on what is happening".


    According to other sources, military loyalists loyal to General Burhan would have taken control, in a very delicate moment in the transition of the country divided into two factions by the ousting of former president Omar al-Bashir.

Only yesterday the pro-democracy groups had warned of a possible blow after the security forces had dispersed with ilacrimogeni a demonstration of pro-militaries calling for the dissolution of the transitional government.

Protesters had briefly blocked the main roads and bridges of Khartoum, isolating the central area from the northern districts.
