A Rumbek Central County court ruled that the Yirol West County MP in the state assembly, Luka Agok violated the Dinka customary laws, which attracts a two-month jail sentence.
The MP represents South Sudan Opposition Alliance (SSOA) in the state assembly.

However, while the lawmaker was fined SSP 200,000, court also found the woman involved in adultery guilty and fined her SSP 100,000 or one month in jail.
