At least one person was killed in a revenge attack in Kongor County of South Sudan’s Jonglei State on Monday night.
Kongor County commissioner Garang Bul Pageer told Radio Tamazuj on Wednesday that the deceased was killed by the relatives of a man he caught committing adultery with his wife.
“At around 11:30 PM, a man found his wife with someone in his house after returning from a trip in the neighboring Duk. So he shot and injured the man and went away with his wife. The same night when the relatives of the injured heard of what happened, they killed the husband of the woman,” he explained.
Commissioner Bul pointed out that the woman and the murderer are undergoing investigations in police custody and the injured person was flown to Juba for treatment.
