Injuries from "solid object" caused death of Sudanese teacher in custody- official

A Sudanese teacher taken into custody after protests died due to injuries from "solid object", according to a medical report cited on Thursday by the head of a state investigations committee.

No toxins were found in the teacher's body, the report said. Officials had initially said the teacher, whose death was reported on Saturday after protests in the eastern town of Khashm al-Qirba, had died of food poisoning.
