Sudan: 1 year

Mr Abduraheem, Mr Abdumawla and Mr Jasek, have been in detention since their arrests in December 2015 while Mr Shamal was taken into custody in May 2016. The four men are charged jointly with seven crimes – including at least two national security breaches – which they deny. Their trial has been subject to several postponements and delays.
