Abd Alaziz Omer was executed at Kassala Prison, Port Sudan.

Abd Alaziz Omer was executed at Kassala Prison, Port Sudan. Mr. Omer was convicted of murder and sentenced to death on 15 August 2005. During the trial, Mr. Omer did not have legal representation and the prosecution accepted the defence that Mr. Omer had not intended to kill the victim. On 18 November 2005, SOAT lawyers submitted a request to the Chief Justice to delay the execution pending an appeal before the then defunct Constitutional Court on the grounds that Mr. Omer did not recieve a fair trial and that the National Supreme Court have set a precedence in that where the accused does not know the vicitm prior to causing the death and did not intend to kill, the crime is not murder but a lesser offence; and negotiations with the victim’s family with regard to accepting the Dia. On 3 December, the Chief Justice rejected the request on the grounds that the Consitutional Court did not have jurisdiction over the crime and ordered the prison authorities to go proceed with the execution of Mr. Omer.
