The Sudanese journalist briefly jailed for wearing “indecent trousers” said Wednesday she might not return to her country but instead continue her campaign for women’s rights from abroad.

Lubna Ahmed Hussein, who said she defied a travel ban and sneaked out of Sudan, said however she was not planning to ask for asylum in Europe.

“I am waiting for the network of women in Sudan (campaigning for women’s rights)… to decide whether it is better for me to continue the campaign at home or abroad,” she told reporters in Paris.
