On November 29, 2019, Sudan's National Congress Party (NCP) condemned the country's new government for dissolving the party and confiscating its assets.
The NCP, led by ousted president Omar al-Bashir, accused the authorities of trying to tackle Sudan's economic crisis by seizing the party's properties.
"To rely on the assets of the party, if there are any, is nothing more than a moral scandal, an act of intellectual bankruptcy and a total failure on the part of the illegal government," the NCP said on its Facebook page.
The authorities had approved a law ordering the NCP to be dissolved, its assets confiscated, and the regime dismantled as demanded by the protest movement that led to Bashir's fall in April.
They also slapped a ban on any "symbols" of the former regime from taking part in political activities for 10 years.
