Sudan\'s Islamist opposition leader, Hassan al-Turabi denounced  the overthrow of Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi on Thursday, describing is as a \"coup against legitimacy\". Al-Turabi said that Morsi had become a victim of a coalition of the army, Christians and \"liberals who believe in democracy for themselves but not for others.\" \"This is a coup against the constitution, against the legitimacy,\" Turabi told reporters. \"He was the first democratically elected leader. He issued a constitution which the people wanted.\" Sudan\'s government, however, gave a cautious response to Morsi\'s ousting, describing it as \"domestic affair\" for Egypt. \"Sudan calls on all parties in Egypt to make as a priority to preserve Egypt\'s stability and security, peace and unity of its people,\" Sudan’s foreign ministry said in a statement.
