Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Police in Manyo County of Upper Nile state have detained one person for allegedly burning the office of the Commissioner on Friday. <\/a>The incident happened during the morning hours of Friday.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Commissioner Peter Awon says the suspect was angered by the killing of his brother in the County.<\/p>\n

Last week, seven people were reportedly killed by unknown attackers at Mulha revenue collection checkpoint.<\/p>\n

This came after the County authorities banned the collection of revenue in the area, saying it was illegal.<\/p>\n

This prompted the illegal revenue collectors allegedly supported by some politicians in the area to stage a protest against the decision.<\/p>\n

<\/a>On Friday, one of the aggrieved \u2013 illegal revenue collectors \u2013 allegedly set the office of the commissioner on fire.<\/p>\n

No one was injured in the incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe thing that happened is that this person came from Malakal and, the next morning, burned the office and the country\u2019s flag. And he claims that his brother was killed in the recent events and he claims that I am responsible,\u201d Commissioner Awon told Eye Radio on Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis brother works in the county as an administrative officer. He was arrested and is now under investigation. According to witnesses, who broke the door and burned the office with gasoline matchsticks.\u201d<\/p>\n

The suspect has been identified as Adwog Wajaraas.<\/p>\n
