WAU,1st March, 2011 [Gurtong] - Rizik who arrived in Wau on Monday from Raga County, told Gurtong that the abductees escaped a few hours later and are in good condition with their family. Since the Sunday attacks in Raga, security situation has deteriorated in the neighboring Western Equatoria State where a honorable member with his son and another person were abducted in morning hours on their way to their farm. There is a long history of LRA’s violence in South Sudan since the Ugandan rebels began to scatter in Southern Sudan, Central Africa Republic and Democratic Republic of Cong (DRC). The LRA is far from extinct while there are disputes whether the Uganda rebels have been weakened by the recent offensive strike against them or not. Though, it’s clear that they remain incredibly dangerous and ruthless. After the interim period, Southern Sudanese shall be protected by SPLA against LRA after the long civil war that saw many lose their lives the Commissioner added.
