Khartoum, Sudan (CNN) -- Sudanese police clashed with students Sunday as protests inspired by rallies in Egypt broke out in the capital.

The students protested at a university in Khartoum, chanting "No to high prices, no to corruption" and "Tunisia, Egypt, Sudan together as one."

About 100 students hurled rocks at police officers, who forced them back. Five people were arrested, authorities said.

Students resumed the protests and tried to engage bystanders as soon as police left the area.

2. Sudan's has been building for a few weeks with the secession referendum

That was overwhelmingly in favor of getting away from Khartoum at least.

Of course, if there's also an Egypt/Tunisia style uprising against Bashir, I wouldn't shed any tears for the fucker.
