Detective tells corruption trial that Omar al-Bashir disclosed payments after he was deposed

Omar al-Bashir told investigators he had received millions of dollars from Saudi Arabia, a detective has said in court on the first day of the deposed Sudanese president's high-profile corruption trial.

Bashir has been in detention since being forced from power in April when security forces withdrew their support for his regime after months of popular protests.
