“We are monitoring what enters and leaves the bakery - the flour before it is made into bread, the bread that comes out, who it goes to, at what time and why,” said 20-year-old student Mohaned Babeker, standing watch at the bakery in the Khartoum neighborhood of Arkawit.
The volunteers have already caught wheat or bread being smuggled out of bakeries in Arkawit – in one case 2,000 loaves for sale at triple the price outside Khartoum, Babeker said. The culprits got a police warning.
