The UN is "deeply shocked" by the death of a UN peacekeeping mission member in South Sudan and condemns his murder. This was stated by a UN spokesperson at a press briefing at UN headquarters in New York on Friday.
UN civilian staff member Bol Rosh Mayol Kuot, a South Sudanese citizen, was detained by South Sudanese security forces on December 15 and has remained in custody since then. The UN mission worked closely with local authorities to establish his whereabouts and secure his safe release.
"We mourn his loss and offer our sincere condolences to his family, loved ones, and colleagues," the UN statement said. "The killing of United Nations staff is unacceptable. We call for an immediate, comprehensive, and transparent investigation to ensure those responsible are held accountable."
