Clashes between communities and state over cyanide pollution

Residents of Sodari in North Kordofan protested against the use of cyanide in extracting gold from its ore on Sunday, fearing the use of the cyanide will result in a contamination and pollution of the water sources in the neighbourhood.
The protesters handed a memorandum to the Commissioner of Sodari demanding closure of the gold cyanidation site in the locality within 72 hours.
