KHARTOUM, April 2 (Reuters) - Sudan will hold parliamentary and presidential elections in February 2010, eight months later than originally scheduled, an election commission official said on Thursday.

"The results will be declared by the end of February. The voting will take place earlier in the month," Abdullah Ahmed Abdullah, deputy chairman of Sudan's National Electoral Commission, told Reuters. (Reporting by Andrew Heavens; Writing by Cynthia Johnston in Cairo)
