Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Three leaders of striking Jonglei civil servants have been arrested, while on a peaceful demonstration over nonpayment in the state capital Bor, their spokesman said.<\/p>\n

Ibrahim Dhieu, the spokesperson of Jonglei State Workers\u2019 Trade Union said those arrested include the Chairperson of Jonglei Workers\u2019 Trade Union, David Mayen, and his secretary, Samuel Majier Looch.<\/p>\n

The Chairperson of Teachers\u2019 Union Reuben Matio Mayol was also arrested.<\/p>\n

Ibrahim said police arrested the trio this afternoon, on the orders of the state Governor Denay Jock Chagor.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were arrested at the state ministry of education, while preparing for peaceful demonstration, and they were arrested on orders of the state governor,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The arrest of the protest leaders followed peaceful demonstrations by civil servants demanding payment of five months\u2019 salary arrears on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey also dissolved Jonglei workers\u2019 trade union and Jonglei teachers\u2019 trade union and the reason is that we demanded for the salary arrears for five months.\u201d<\/p>\n

The official said they were also protesting against proposal of payment of only two-month by the Screening Committee for proposing payment of the salaries of May and June only.\u201d<\/p>\n

State authorities have yet to comment on the arrest of peaceful protestors.<\/p>\n
