Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The South Sudan judiciary has suspended slated hearing sessions for inmates due to what it called lack of fuel to transport prisoners to the venue.<\/p>\n

This comes after the judiciary adjourned several sessions as the government failed to provide fuel for the vehicles.<\/p>\n

Reliable sources who spoke to Sudans Post anonymously said that juries have been complaining over fuel shortage for their vehicles for three days.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe still adjourn these cases because there is no fuel in the car that will be used to transport inmates to the court. I am not certain when there will be fuel,\u201d a source who spoke to Sudans Post said anonymously.<\/p>\n

South Sudan\u2019s main export is oil. But ironically, the country occasionally experiences biting fuel shortage which sometimes affect prices of commodities in the market.<\/p>\n

In a surprising twist of events, critical government institutions such as the judiciary, have not been spared.<\/p>\n

Sudans Post also learned that several court cases which should have their verdicts passed are still pending without a fixed hearing date.<\/p>\n

Chief Justice Chan Reec Madut could not be reached for comments as his office manager claimed a busy schedule.<\/p>\n

Vehicles donated<\/p>\n

In February this year, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) donated 14 Hino Trucks and 7 land cruisers to the Ministry of Justice and Constitutional Affairs.<\/p>\n

After handing over the vehicles, Samuel Doe, UNDP Residence Representative in South Sudan said the trucks were a contribution from the UN organization to support the government in delivering justice.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe opportunity and equipment to convey inmates from prison to courts was a major challenge and we needed to contribute and support the government in addressing that challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the same occasion, Chief Justice Chan Reec said the trucks would support the work of justice in the ten states and three administrative areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll 10 states in South Sudan will have these trucks to support the movement of inmates and in 3 administrative areas,\u201d he said at the time.<\/p>\n

It was unclear how the government would facilitate the logistical arrangements such as fuel supply to operate the vehicle.<\/p>\n
