Speaking to Radio Tamazuj on Wednesday, the commissioner of Abiemnhom West County, Michael Malek Yak confirmed that a man was killed and his wife injured during an attack carried out by armed men on Sunday.
He said a woman was also killed and another wounded on Monday.
"An armed group on Monday at about 8 pm shot two women, killing one woman and wounding another, while a man was killed and his wife injured on Sunday night,” said Malek.
He accused elements from neighboring Mayom County in Northern Liech State of alleged involvement in the attacks.
