A new Ghost House in Khartoum

A New Ghost House has been located and reported by a recent detainee who was tortured there on 12/25/18 (Xmas Day). 

Abdelrahim Abayazid was arrested at one of many rallies that never stopped since 12/19, and he was taken to that place along with around 25 activists.

Thanks to Google Maps that identified and located the place to share with human rights groups and UN.
It's located in Khartoum, Amarat Extension on Street #57 at the far eastern side next to a gas station on Africa Street. Abdelrahim provided a sketch of the place that looks like one of many new Ghost Houses created over the past few months.
The Group Against Torture in Sudan-GATS is planning to update the Human Rights Commission of the US Congress and discuss the mass detention, public torture, and tens of killing of peaceful demonstrators.
