Security forces accused of extorting money from civil society groups in Maridi
Several civil society organizations in South Sudan’s Maridi State have accused security forces in the state of exhorting money from them ـــ a move which they said has been hindering their activities in the area. The civil society groups said this during a meeting organized by Maridi Service Agency with support from Democracy International (DI). The Executive Director of Maridi Service Agency, Widdatallah Peter, told Radio Tamazuj yesterday that the security forces view civil society organizations as sources of income. Peter revealed that they called for a meeting with government officials in the state to discuss how best they can serve the locals without interference. -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/d/forum/southsudankob View this message at https://groups.google.com/d/msg/southsudankob/topic-id/message-id For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "South Sudan Info - The Kob" group.
