The Africans sue the interned Scandinavians (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sudanese

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'the africans' is the definition.
(people from Sudan)

'sue the interned scandinavians' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'scandinavians' could be 'danes' (people from Denmark) and 'danes' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'sue' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sudanese that I've seen before include "Bad danseuse from a northeastern African state" , "People in country" , "Of Khartoum, say" , "From Khartoum, perhaps" , "Sue Dean's a native of the African state" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
