February 1, 2012 (BOR) – Authorities in Lakes State have captured a
South Sudanese army deserter suspected of killing a Ugandan
businessman in the state’s capital, Rumbek, on Wednesday.

The soldier, Pabek Mackuac, was a member of division five in the Sudan
People’s Liberation Army (SPLA) Abyei unit.

Rumbek central county commissioner, Matur Majok Magol said Mackuac is
responsible for the death of a Ugandan businessman identified as
“Francis” at 5.30am on Wednesday.

According to Rumbek Central Criminal Investigation Department, Pabek
was under the influence of alcohol when he committed the crime.

Magol said Padek demanded money from Francis, who responded by
offering him a cheque, but Padek rejected the offer and killed
Francis.

Padek was captured at gunpoint by security personnel in his home, 30km
from Rumbek central county.

Francis’s body is being transported back to Uganda.
