Speaking to Sudans Post this evening exclusively from Torit, a senior information ministry official said the former county commissioner was killed when a group of armed men suspected to be rebels.
“This is to confirm that Mr. Charles was killed this morning by rebel men who attacked Tambura County because there have been clashes in this part of Eastern Equatoria state,” the official who requested not to be named said.
“Currently, his body is being laid to rest and a funeral rite will be conducted in connection with the family,” the official further added.
Babiro was the Commissioner of Tambura County between 2010 and 2015.
