Gatdet Dak's family demands his release after one month in NSS custody in
Juba

NAIROBI (7 Dec.)

The family of James Gatdet Dak, the jailed official spokesman for the main
South Sudanese rebel group led by former vice president Riek Machar, is
demanding their son be released as he spends more than a month in detention
in the capital Juba.

In early November, Machar’s spokesman Gatdet Dak was deported by Kenyan
officials over issues related to a Facebook post in which he expressed
support for the removal of Lt. Gen. Johnson Mogoa Kimani Ondieki, the
Kenyan top officer in the UN mission in South Sudan.

His wife Mary Nyahok told Radio Tamazuj yesterday that she lost contact
with her husband after being deported to Juba. She further said relatives
informed her that Gatdet is in detention of the South Sudan government's
spy agency known as National Security Services (NSS).

“I hear that my husband is being detained in Juba by the national security
service, I did not talk to him since he was arrested. They stopped me from
talking to him, I don’t know whether his is okay or not,” said Nyahok.

Nyahok called upon the relevant authorities in South Sudan to release her
husband so he can return to his family in Nairobi, saying their living
condition worsened following the deportation of her husband to Juba.
