LONDON: Sudanese journalist Mohammed Amin has been denied a UK visa to attend an awards ceremony at which he has been nominated for a top prize recognizing his reporting from Sudan. Amin, a freelance correspondent for Middle East Eye, was due to attend the One World Media Awards, where he is nominated for Journalist of the Year. The Home Office refused his application for an eight-day visa, saying it was not satisfied he had a genuine reason to visit or that he would leave the country at the end of his stay.
