#SouthSudan #Sudan #SSOT
It has been almost six years since my youngest son, Dr. Ding Col Dau Ding (1) - a British educated medical doctor and dual citizen of both South Sudan and the United Kingdom - was brutally murdered in Juba, the capital city and seat of government of #SouthSudan.
I have noted the recent statement made by the British, European and the US diplomatic missions in the country, and by the South Sudan Doctors’ Union (2), condemning the killings and calling for swift justice to be meted out by the government of #SouthSudan;…
…and by the South Sudanese Presidency in particular.

After my family’s attempts to obtain swift justice and accountability in October 2015 for the premeditated murder of my beloved son - and as I have now observed with the recent shooting of a foreign national,…
…Catholic Bishop, in Rumbek where immediate action was taken by President Salva Kiir personally in instructing the #SouthSudan Inspector General of Police to promptly expedite the criminal justice processes - if the upcoming investigations, arrests, and prosecutions of the…
…perpetrators of the recent killings of other healthcare personnel and aid workers are expedited swiftly, then I shall have witnessed the final proof that I needed to confirm that the murder of my youngest son and its various attempts to cover it up and pervert the course of…
…justice, has indeed been politically motivated by the current government of South Sudan. (3)

The government of #SouthSudan must immediately deliver justice for the murder of my son.

Justice For Dr Ding

This is not the first time that the @BBC “fell short of high standards of integrity and transparency”, in order to try to get a scoop, with serious consequences. #Sudan #SouthSudan
In 1991, the then @BBCWorld correspondent, Colin Blane, erroneously reported on a live @bbcworldservice broadcast that a coup had taken place within the Sudan People’s Liberation Army/Movement (SPLA/M); and that John Garang De Mabior had been removed from his leadership position.
Blane reported the coup claim without any confirmation; and simply after being invited to interview Riek Machar & Lam Akol - the 1991 coup leaders - in Nasir after Blane’s visit was arranged by Emma McCune, an expatriate British aid worker who had become married to Riek Machar.
