At least two killed in shooting at forex in Juba

Central Equatoria Minister of Information Soba Samuel said criminals entered into a forex bureau in Juba town and shot dead a policeman and cashier on Wednesday.

Soba said two people were confirmed dead inside the bureau and he does not know whether the killers were arrested or not but he said they are being hunted by the police.

They killers were said to be people dealing in the selling of dollars in the black market.

However, the minister's report conflicted with a report carried by Radio Miraya, which said that three police were killed after one policeman shot dead two of his collagues and then killed himself. 

Police Commissioner for Central Equatoria Henry Dadinga said that so far he had little information about the incident that happened in Juba on Wednesday.
