Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>Two people, including a national security officer and a civilian were killed in a road ambush in Kajo-Keji County of Central Equatoria State on Saturday, the commissioner said.<\/p>\n

Phanuel Dumo told Eye Radio that the security officers were escorting a landlord to assess an area reportedly plagued by illegal loggers in Kasuk Boma of Nyepo Payam, when they were waylaid by \u201ccriminals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Dumo said a woman who was hired to cook for the mission has been shot and wounded in the ambush. The wounded cook is currently being treated fat Kajo-keji Civil Hospital.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey fell into ambush organized by criminals, so in the process, one soldier of the national security was killed, and the other one is just a civilian who was not part of the team,\u201d he told Eye Radio in an interview.<\/p>\n

The motive of the attack is unclear, but commissioner Kenyi said a crackdown was immediately launched to track down the assailants.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the women was hit by the bullet and now she is in the Kajo-Keji civil hospital. We cracked down on these people and we are yet to establish where this group comes from in particular.\u201d<\/p>\n
