Ministry of Justice (Sudan)

The Ministry of Justice of Sudan (Arabic: دستور السودان, romanized: Wizārat al-ʻAdl) was created in 1956 by Mohammed Ahmed Abu Ranat and Ahmed Metwally al-Atabani (who became a judiciary head and deputy general respectively after the country's independence from Anglo-Egyptian rule). In 1983, the ministry's responsibilities were clearly defined to include representing the state in legal affairs, reviewing and reforming laws that promote justice, and other functions.

Before 2019 and signing of the Draft Constitutional Declaration, the Minister of Justice also served as the Attorney General, combining executive oversight of the justice system with prosecutorial authority. On 10 October 2019, Tag el-Sir el-Hibir was appointed as the Attorney General but the office was abolished following the 2021 coup d'état.
