“CEPO welcomed the recent act undertake by the leadership of the national security services on 29 September for punishing 4 of their officers for arresting civilians without following due procedures. The move is remarkable and hope it will be a policy approach for any NSS officers regardless of his or her rank,” Yakani told Sudans Post this afternoon.

“Fighting indiscipline behaviors among the members of the security and defense sectors should be taken up as key priority for winning citizens transit and confidence on the security and defense sectors. The indiscipline officers in our security and defense sectors do direct contribute in make the citizens mistrust the state,” he added.

He further called on “the leadership of our security and defense sectors institutions to establish public compliance box for generating regular assessment of the public trust on the institutions.”
