16 May 2008 @ 03:59 pm EST

KHARTOUM, Sudan (AP) - In a May 11 story about Sudan severing ties with Chad, The Associated Press, relying on a state television report, erroneously reported the dollar value of a reward offered by the government for Darfur rebel leader Khalil Ibrahim.

The reward is valued at $122,000, not $122 million. The state television said the reward was valued in new Sudanese dinars, or pounds, which are worth 1,000 times the value of the currency before it was revalued more than a year ago.

On Tuesday, a government spokesman said the reward was being offered in the old currency.
