KHARTOUM, Aug 27 (Reuters) - Sudan has expelled the top official in Sudan of the U.S.-based aid group CARE, the director said on Monday. Country director Paul Barker told Reuters the Sudanese government's Humanitarian Aid Commission had given him 72 hours to leave the country without giving reasons for the decision. Barker is the third prominent foreigner expelled from Sudan in less than a week. On Thursday Sudan told diplomats from Canada and the European Union to leave but it later allowed the EU ambassador to stay until his term expires next month. Officials were not available to comment at the commission, the government body that monitors humanitarian work. But copies of its 72-hour order to Barker were printed in local papers.
