We are in Sudan yaaaay, I thought we can relax and enjoy our time and the amazing hot weather …. I was wrong. Getting the approval certificate from the court was fucking annoying.
[February 10] We got up early and we had our breakfast and then I and Elma went out with my father to go the court. On our way to the court, we stopped by someplace to pick up my cousin “Ehab” and took him with us since he has experience in making these document and so on.
We arrived at the court, and before we enter it some guy sitting outside the court told us we need to write an application form, actually he must write it for us (he is probably some judge’s cousin or something and he has no work!!). While he was writing the so-called application form, Elma took some photos of the court and the area surrounding it. I think you guessed what happened next :), yes a police officer approached us and asked Elma to follow him (Speaking in Arabic to her !!!). She did not understand him, of course, I asked him what's wrong, he answered me in an arrogant way, let her follow me to my superior officer. I refused and asked Elma to wait with my father. I went to the superior officer and I found him sitting with a bunch of other police guys under a tree. He told me the same bullshit as the other officer at the airport, I deleted the photos to avoid the same meaningless conversation. After I deleted them, I was going back to my father and Elma, but one of the officers sitting under the tree told me “How can I make sure you deleted the photos, I must see ALL the photos you have to confirm”, I snapped at him and gave him a piece of my mind. He was shocked and didn’t say anything.
After the guy writing the application is done, he told us we should go to another court to process our document, we can’t process it in this court!!! WTF, why you did not say that at the beginning. Anyway we went to the other court, and before we enter another police officer started to talk to Elma (also in Arabic) and he asked her not to go inside? he said her dress was inappropriate for the court!
I started to argue, I was so angry, but Ehab and my father ask me to calm down and wait with Elma outside the court. They went inside and after a few minutes they came back with another guy and he took us inside
