President of the Sudanese Bar Association Zain Al-Abidin Mohamed Hamad, addressing an iftar gathering of young lawyers in Port Sudan on Sunday, reaffirmed the Bar’s support and backing for the Sudanese Armed Forces the “Battle of Dignity.” He said, “Were it not for the sacrifices of the Armed Forces, jihad, and martyrdom, this gathering would not have been possible,” expressing hope for a decisive victory, national recovery, and the full return of citizens to their homes in safety, security, and stability.
Zain Al-Abidin praised young lawyers, affirming that they are the standard-bearers who will lead the Syndicate in the future.
For his part, Bar Secretary-General Imad-Eddin Al-Fadni announced a set of ambitious and strategic programmes aimed at empowering young lawyers in the next phase, reiterating the Syndicate’s steadfast support for the Armed Forces since the war began.
He disclosed that more than 400 lawyers are currently serving on the frontlines, adding that 35 have been martyred while defending the homeland and its citizens in the “War of Dignity” against the rebel militia, its associates, mercenaries and backers at home and abroad, asserting that victory is imminent.
