A man killed his wife and her mother in South Sudan’s Maridi State last Sunday, a local official said.

Amadi information minister John Obote told Radio Tamazuj on Thursday that a man went on the rampage in Maridi, killing his wife and her mother following a court case.

The official added that the man also inflicted wounds on his father-in-law before he escaped.

“The man went and attacked his in-laws after his wife demanded a divorce. The two women who had been killed in Maridi hailed from Amadi,” he said.
