JUBA – A senior state police commander in South Sudan’s Lakes state has been shot dead in what is believed by state authorities to be a revenge attack, according to the police authorities there.

Major Makol Mathiang, 42, who was working as the director of prison service in Cueibet County was gunned down by unknown gunmen in Cueibet on Tuesday evening, according to police officer who said the perpetrators are still at large.

“As per the attackers’ testimony, one of their relatives was killed some years back by his relatives,” Machar Mouriel, a former spokesman for police in the defunct Gok state was quoted by Eye Radio as saying.

Machar further revealed that police authorities have prevented the family of the senior police officer from doing a revenge following the killing.

“We managed to stop them so that the law will take its course,” Mouriel added.

    south sudan will not go anywhere if the revenge killing is always targeted only the intellectual, imagine a police commander just to be kill like that, it will be better if south sudan government have laws that is respected by citizen and it’s leaders because if the commander is killed even the Goveror of the state is at risk too due to clans fight. Nuer and Dinka need to learn something call forgiveness because revenge killing continue make everything bitter/bad in every day life. this is piece of comment
