Aweil police arrest 8 for murder
Authorities in Aweil East County of Northern Bahr-el-Ghazal State said they are holding and investigating eight people accused of the murder of a man, Mawein Majok Yel, which occurred in the Lou areas last week.
The arrests were made after the deceased was found dead on 16th January and the police arrested the eight suspects after it was revealed that they had been involved in a fight with the deceased before he died.
“We found out that someone was killed, but we did not know the people who killed him. Now we caught the people and they are now in prison. The suspected people are about eight now. The deceased was Mawein Majok Yel and he died in the area of Lou. The suspects were caught one by one, not all of them at once,’’ Abraham Wiik Awan, the executive director of Aweil East County said.
