The United Kingdom Ambassador to South Sudan has welcomed the SPLA Chief’s
remark on violence against women.

In a statement broadcast on SSBC Television Tuesday evening, General Paul
Malong Awan told soldiers that there should be no more violence against
women.

Gen Malong also ordered soldiers to work with the regional protection
force, which is yet to deploy in Juba to use all necessary means to protect
civilians and other key installations such as the airport.

Tim Morris told Eye Radio that it is very welcome to hear the general speak
about these.“Violence against women in conflict is absolute shameful
episode this country has been through,” Amb Morris stated.“This problem
exists in war zones and needs to be tackled and needs to be senior
responsible people in uniform, probably, to start with, convicted so people
could see this is not acceptable. So this is very welcome hearing the
General talk about that.”
