Dec. 14 (UPI) -- A judge sentenced former Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir to two years in prison Saturday on charges of corruption, possessing foreign currency and accepting illegal gifts.
The judge said Bashir, 75, will serve his sentence at a reform facility instead of a prison due to his age. He has been imprisoned at Kobar Prison since his ouster in April. The judge also ordered the confiscation of millions of dollars in euros and Sudanese pounds found in his home at the time of his arrest.
