Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span> <\/b>The prime suspect linked to killing of four construction workers in Warrap State of South Sudan has been arraigned in Special General Court Martial on Monday in Juba.<\/p>\n

Private Yak Garang Yak from Tiger Division is accused of killing three Syrian nationals and a South Sudanese working for a Lebanese Construction Company.<\/p>\n

The victims were killed while building a house of a senior government official in Akon village of Gogrial West of Warrap State on January 7.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the private suspect appeared before the General Court Martial formed by Chief of South Sudan People\u2019s Defense Forces (SSPDF) Gen. Santino Deng Wol earlier this week to try the suspect.<\/p>\n

5-Member General Court Martial is chaired by Maj. Gen. Majok Michael Chan and deputized by Brig. Gen. Alex Makelele Nyijok.<\/p>\n

The presiding judge, Maj. Gen. Majok Michael Chan adjourned the session after defense lawyer CAPT. Francis Loboka objected to its formation.<\/p>\n

Loboka argued that General Court Martial should do the work that is meant for the committee.<\/p>\n

He also urged the court to transfer the accused from the military Intelligence detention facility to military police.<\/p>\n
