Khartoum/London - A British teacher convicted of blasphemy in Sudan for allowing her students to name a teddy bear Mohammed was moved to a secret location for her own safety late on Friday. The move came as thousands of protesters, some carrying knives and clubs, outside the presidential palace in Khartoum demanded a harsher sentence for Gilliam Gibbons, 54, who was sentenced to 15 days in prison, rather than a year, 40 lashes or a fine.
The perceived leniency of the sentence had angered Sudan's hard- line Muslims.
