A man has allegedly killed his mother in South Sudan’s northern Upper Nile State, according to local authorities. The motive for the killing is not clear.
Lieutenant Isaac Chol Malual, the police official in charge of the western section in Renk, said that the accused killed his mother with a knife and then turned himself in to police.
“He was a young man about the age of 29 or 30. That guy had been suffering from a psychological problem for a while,” said the policeman.
