Al-Mubarak spoke about the central role played by Muslim Brotherhood leader Ahmed Haroun—internationally wanted—in managing a network of judges loyal to the former regime. From inside Kober Prison, he supervised the reinstatement of dismissed judges and the unfreezing of assets and properties seized during Omar al-Bashir’s 30-year rule.
According to Al-Mubarak, the judiciary was used after the October 2021 coup to ensure impunity for regime figures. This was carried out through judges Abdelaziz Fath Al-Rahman (acting Chief Justice), Al-Amin Al-Tayeb Al-Bashir (Deputy Chief Justice), and Abu Subaiha, who overturned the decisions of the Empowerment Removal Committee and reinstated dismissed judges.

She explained that meetings were held inside the prison with the participation of its director, which resulted in a “legal fatwa” allowing regime leaders to be released. Judge Abu Subaiha was tasked with restructuring the judiciary in favor of the Brotherhood, which included returning confiscated funds and unfreezing bank accounts.
Al-Mubarak also pointed out that this influence continued during the war that broke out in April 2023, as the judiciary became a platform for financing the conflict by collecting funds, exploiting judicial institutions for private investment projects, and silencing dissenting voices.

She stated that Ahmed Haroun reassigned loyal judges to key posts, starting with the executive office of the Chief Justice, headed by Judge Talal Hashem Qureshi, whom she described as “weak-willed and easily manipulated”. His deputy, Judge Al-Kabbashi Mohamed Omar, was reinstated after dismissal and is known for his total allegiance to the Islamic movement and ties to security services.
Al-Mubarak confirmed that Al-Kabbashi was previously involved in financial corruption cases in Kassala State and is now the real decision-maker in the executive office, with the authority to circulate official decisions.

In the services department, responsible for supplying provisions to judges, Al-Mubarak said Judge Malik Bakri was appointed as head after his reinstatement. His administration deducted monthly amounts from judges’ salaries without providing the corresponding services.
She accused Judge Malik Bakri of using the embezzled funds to establish fake companies under non-judicial names, operating in tahini manufacturing, meat export, and running pharmacies in safe states. He was also reportedly allocated three gold mining zones in the River Nile and Red Sea states.

Bakri appointed Judge Ayad Al-Tuhami to manage services in Kassala, providing him with housing in both Kassala and Gedaref, while other judges lacked basic housing due to displacement.
The lawyer concluded that the judiciary has turned into a “private investment firm” funding war and pursuing profit, while all voices calling for justice or opposing the war have been silenced under threats of imprisonment or execution on fabricated charges.
