24 women will be tried for wearing trouser in Khartoum Sudan

Twenty-four women will be tried in a district court in Khartoum on Sunday for 'inappropriate clothing'. Public order police stormed a party on Wednesday evening, where the girls and women were wearing trousers.

"The party took place in a closed hall in a building in El Mamoura. The girls were arrested for wearing trousers, despite obtaining a permit from the authorities."Most times when women are tried, however, a conviction follows. The crime is punishable by up to 40 lashes and a fine. Last August, Sudan's Public Order Court has dismissed charges against two girls, accused of wearing disgraceful dress, citing a lack of evidence by the police and because the judge concluded that "trousers are not disgraceful".
