    Sudan extends landmark elections


    Sudan's elections have been extended by two days, the election commission has said, after delays delivering ballot papers to polling stations.The landmark polls, the country's first multi-party elections in 24 years, began on Sunday and were scheduled to run for three days.

    The vote will now end on Thursday, commission spokesman Salah Habib said.

    A group of opposition parties has denounced the elections as a fraud and called for new polls.
