Sudanese authorities arrest members of Bashir's party

Authorities in Sudan have arrested several top members of ousted President Omar al-Bashir's National Congress Party.

This comes as the transitional military council (TMC) is working towards restructuring the security agencies as pressure builds to hand over power to a civilian government. 

Meanwhile, Sudan's public prosecutor has begun investigating Bashir on charges of money laundering, and crimes involving public funds, corruption and criminal cases.

Al-Bashir was overthrown following months of popular protests against his rule.
