They were part of about 200 Catholic missionaries -- most of them Italian -- reaching Rome from the predominately Muslim nation. In all about 300 Catholics and Protestant missionaries are being forced out of Sudan after being charged with anti-state activities. The accusation has been vehemently denied by the missionaries.
