Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of a 36-year-old man who was shot to death on his farm in Lafon County in Eastern Equatoria State on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The deceased was identified as Ayafa Itawok Oriet.<\/p>\n

Angelo James Ayonyang, a member of the state legislative assembly, told Radio Tamazuj on Tuesday that the man was killed on his farm on Christmas day.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t want criminals to disturb our peace; we need peaceful coexistence, especially with the neighbours. It is not good when such incidents occur,\u201d Angelo said. \u201cWe call upon the communities to maintain peace. If there are some criminals from all those villages, they should not hide them. They have to be exposed to face justice.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Oronyo community leader Kanuto Attari Inyasio confirmed the incident and said they are investigating the circumstances under which the man was killed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis incident is true; the information reached me when I came from Torit. So when I returned, I found that the youth had gone to pursue some criminals who attempted to raid cattle belonging to an old man. So there was a clash between them. This is what I heard from them,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

For his part, the state information minister Patrick Oting Cyprian condemned the incident and urged the communities to work for peace.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe government condemns the killing of Ayafa Itawok Oriet on the strongest terms possible and asks the chiefs and elders to arrest those involved in the killing and hand them to the relevant authorities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
