(Translated)

Today, on Tuesday, 22/5/2018, the Criminal Judge of Al-Abyad City in the State of North Kordofan issued an acquittal to the Spokesman of Hizb ut Tahrir in Wilayah Sudan, Ibrahim Othman (Abu Khalil), 14 from the Shabab of the Hizb and Khalid Mohammed Idris, the representative of the Muslim Brotherhood in the city; in the case under Articles 69 and 77 of the Criminal Code which the security services have filed against them. The judge pointed out that the Dawah to Allah does not require authorization and that the constitution guarantees this right. Praise be to Allah (swt) Who says:

﴿وَقُلْ جَاءَ الْحَقُّ وَزَهَقَ الْبَاطِلُ إِنَّ الْبَاطِلَ كَانَ زَهُوقًا﴾

“And say, "Truth has come, and falsehood has departed. Indeed is falsehood, [by nature], ever bound to depart".” [Al-Isra’: 81]

Hizb ut Tahrir in Wilayah Sudan has repeatedly emphasized that thesereports which the security services file against the Shabab of the Hizb, are only malicious reports; they are intended to resent and restrict the Shabab; because the actions of the Hizb are legitimate based on the call to Islam through intellectual and political struggle, and that this impotent and failed government does not have the evidence and arguments to confront the Hizb intellectually and politically, thus it resorts to the twisted methods of arbitrary arrests, harassment and malicious reports, taking advantage of loopholes in the false man-made law, which has been proved in today's trials.

Hizb ut Tahrir continues its way, working in the Ummah and with it to resume the Islamic way of life, by establishing the second Khilafah Rashidah (righteous Caliphate) on the method of the Prophethood, not interrupted by harassment, nor that its resolve is not broken by the trials. And its Shabab consider the afflictions a test from Allah (swt), they bear what happens to them patiently for Allah's sake, and they hope for the repayment and reward from Him Almighty, until its establishment Khilafah Rashidah on the method of the Prophethood.

We ask Allah to accept from the Shabab and to increase their steadfastness. We thank Br. Khalid Mohammed Idris, the representative of the Muslim Brotherhood in Al-Abyad City, may Allah reward him with goodness for patience and fortitude. Many thanks go to the brothers the honorable lawyers who volunteered to defend the truth; The members of the defense committee, headed by Ustadh Abdullah Mohammed Khair al-Mutaaridh, and co-chaired by Ustadh Othman Hassan Saleh, with the participation of Ustadh Abdul Rahim Al-Sadiq Abu Al-Bishr, Ustadh Ali Abu Qasim Osman, Ustadh Adam Saleh, Ustadh Anwar Hamed, Ustadh Mohamed Mustafa, Prof. Ahmed Abu Bakr Ahmed, Ustadh Omar Hassan and Ustadh Faqir Haj Mohamed Ahmed. May Allah (swt) reward them with the best reward, and we ask Allah to grant them success and rightness.

Ibrahim Othman (Abu Khalil)
