"We are going to the prison now to find out more details, We heard it just now on the state radio. We really hope it's true." he said. Only last month, precisely May 31st, a Sudanese Foreign Affairs official in London had claimed that the Sudanese government would soon release her but this was immediately denied by the Sudanese Government stating the  authority of setting her free was solely the responsibility of the courts.
