I cannot always arrest people, and after a few minutes, they are released. I will continue to follow up on the case until the land grabbers are taken to prison,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m still going to make sure that every day we will be monitoring Lado Payam and will continue to arrest the land grabbers until Lado Payam is free from land grabbing in the county,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Last week, Wani said more than 40 people were arrested during an operation, and that the suspects were liable in various capacities.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are now in the implementation of that order… We have arrested more than 40 land grabbers in Lado Payam,\u201d the commissioner said.<\/p>\n He said the suspects would be charged and, if found guilty, would be slapped with jail sentences under the law.<\/p>\n The arrest of the suspects came just a day after a fight broke out between the communities and the land grabbers in Molobur village on Wednesday night, where two houses were burned to ashes.<\/p>\n There have been increasing cases of land grabbing in Central Equatoria State, particularly in Bilinyang Boma in Mangalla Payam and Luri Boma Kworijik village in Lado Payam of Juba County.<\/p>\n Last month, the Governor of Central Equatoria State, Emmanuel Adil, issued a gubernatorial order banning the illegal demarcation, surveys, and the allotment of lands within Juba.<\/p>\n The order was copied to the Assistant Inspector General of Police, who also serves as the Commissioner of Police in CES, minister of housing, lands, and public utilities, commissioner of Juba County, mayor of Juba City Council, security agencies, and the legal administration to swiftly implement the gubernatorial order from the effect of the announcement.<\/p>\n Source: The City Review South Sudan<\/b><\/p>\n For More News And Analysis About South-Sudan<\/a> Follow Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Jenifer James Africa-Press – South-Sudan.
