Death toll exceeds 100: Doctors

A Sudanese doctors' committee close to the demonstrators said on Wednesday afternoon that its estimated death toll over the past three days of violence had risen to more than 100, Reuters reported.

The new toll, which is still expected to rise, comes after more than 40 bodies were recovered from the Nile in Khartoum - with eyewitnesses reporting that security forces dumped bodies into the river.
