Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Police in Abyei has opened a case against youths who allegedly looted six trucks which were transporting food from Sudan to Warrap and Western Bahr el Ghazal State.<\/p>\n

The trucks arrived in Abyei Town on Tuesday, but were attacked by youth in the dead of the night, looting the foodstuff in the process.<\/p>\n

\u201cPolice has opened a case against the perpetrators of this act. They will face the law. These trucks were under their protection,\u201d Abyei Special Administrative Area spokesperson Ajak Deng Miyen said.<\/p>\n

He added that the Administration of Abyei Special Administrative Area would strive to bring to book the perpetrators.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe condemn this unfortunate act. The Area Administration is trying its level best to bring the perpetrators to book,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is worth noting that the Area Administration had no prior information of the movement of these trucks.\u201d<\/p>\n

The spokesperson says it was the first time such an incident occurred in the area.<\/p>\n

Pending status<\/b><\/p>\n

Abyei Special Administrative Area is still disputed by both Sudanese and the South Sudanese governments. The people of Abyei are expected to go for a referendum to decide whether to pay allegiance to either of the two governments.<\/p>\n

In 2013, Dinka Ngok who inhabit Abyei held a unilateral referendum by voting overwhelmingly to be in South Sudan.<\/p>\n

The results of the referendum were, however, rejected by both governments and the international community.<\/p>\n

The area has been seeing issues of insecurity.<\/p>\n

Last week, the government of South Sudan resolved to deploy forces in Abyei to curb further attacks.<\/p>\n
