“I sold two computers in Mugled, one for 150 SDG- or $75. Now I want to sell my freezer!” One soldier attached to SAF’s battalion in Mugled proudly said to a friend on 24th May after arriving from Abyei.
The town of Abyei that witnessed violence since 13th May suffered looting from 15th till today.
The worse vandalism occurred when Misseriya forces went to beep up SAF’s position against the SPLA that withdrew from the town as early as 15th May and were on the offensive to regain their positions. www.newsudanvision.com
