Report incidents of arrest over opinions, Angelo Beda says

Obaj Shago | June 15, 2017 | 5:35 pm'The Blue House' - National Security
building in Juba.

The co-chair of the National Dialogue Steering Committee, Angelo Beda, says
the body has set up a website for reporting any incidents of arrest by the
security during the process.

Mr. Beda says the President has ordered the security forces not to arrest
anyone for giving opinions about how to resolve the conflict in the
country.“This national dialogue is to provide a forum in which the security
is ordered by the president not to arrest anybody. I was there. The
security, even if you said what, you are not to arrest anybody concerning
this fact,” he said.

He spoke in Juba on Wednesday at a consultative workshop on the
implementation of the peace agreement.“We have created a website; we ask
that if you see such a thing anywhere, report it to us. Report it to us
because we have to discuss really serious things. We want to mobilize
people to discuss, and then first we want this war, the fight to stop –
because these are our daughters and children, we want them to stop and come
to tell us – let us find out – what should we do to resolve it,” said Beda.

The workshop was organized by the Civil Society Taskforce on the
Implementation of the Peace Agreement.

President Salva Kiir initiated the dialogue last year, saying it would help
restore lasting peace and reconcile the people.
