Khartoum, Sept. 20 (SUNA)- The Sudanese oil pipeline was subjected to a sabotage act on midnight Sunday at Taiyan village, 14 kilometers east of Atbara town, and the explosion caused limited damage at the site.

The Secretary General of the Ministry of Energy and Mining Engineer Hassan Mohamed Ali explained in a statement to the Sudan News Agency (SUNA) that the Ministers of Energy and Interior inspected the incident site Monday morning, adding that engineers began as of Monday morning maintenance of the damage and work is scheduled to be completed Tuesday.

The Undersecretary of the Ministry of Energy affirmed that the programme of oil exportation, arrival and loading of ships will not be affected by the incident.

The fourth ship for exporting Sudanese oil is due to arrive at Bashayer port for loading on Wednesday, he said.

Meanwhile, security authorities said that they found at the incident area a sign in the form of emblem of the so-called Ummah Liberation Army.

A political source held elements of the so-called Alliance responsible for the sabotage act, condemning such acts as coward ones and targeting the Sudanese nation's capabilities and interests.

The source stressed that the concerned authorities will pursue the culprits and arrest them, adding that efforts will be made to avoid occurrence of similar sabotage acts.

He called upon the citizens to be alert and inform the security authorities about persons who are suspected of committing such heinous acts.
