Dear Sir:

"Statement of allegations" means you can write down your story, the reasons made you leave your country, the most important risks you have experienced there in Sudan the last months/years before you left. You can also add evidences such as photos, documents or witness statements.

It would be interesting to prepare the allegations with a lawyer. You can ask for it at Cruz Roja or other NGOs such as CEAR, for example. https://www.cruzroja.es/principal/web/comunidad-de-madrid/donde-estamos 

Anyways, in case you don't get a lawyer vefore the interview, just you to know after that interview you can also complete your case with help of a lawyer.
