Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Police in Upper Nile State have arrested an army officer whose alleged disappearance caused tension in Malakal town and detention the state Criminal Investigation Director last month.<\/p>\n

According to State Police Commissioner General Chol Atem, SSSPF soldier Yay Lual Thuch went missing last week after he reportedly disagreed with Criminal Investigation Director Nyok Bol Ajeing.<\/p>\n

Lual Thuch\u2019s reported disappearance caused tension between his colleagues and the CID director Ajeing, leading to the latter\u2019s arrest two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

But early this week, Police official Major General Chol Atem said missing Lual Thuch was found on Monday in Bor town of Jonglei State where he was arrested.<\/p>\n

He was brought to Juba on the same day and repatriated to Malakal of Upper Nile State on the following day.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis person since his disappearance and people have been looking for him the committee was formed for the matter and they were investigating the case, up to yesterday [Tuesday, October 3] when he was surrounded in Bor and CID reported the matter to us here,\u201d Police Commissioner Atem said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe investigation committee that was formed by the state government has given a directive to be handed over to the army in Bor and the army to transport him to Juba, all this arrangement has been made, and as I spoke to you now he is in Juba airport on his way to Malakal,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Police Commissioner Major General Chol Atem calls on the citizens in Malakal to stay away from rumours and allow the law to take its course.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to say this when such a case happens the accusations imaginations rumours, and mixing things with politics should be avoided, the case or the problem should remain in its nature,\u201d Atem said.<\/p>\n
