In South Sudan, a ram was arrested for the crime of attacking Adhieu Chaping, 45. The woman later died after suffering injuries.
“The ram attacked by hitting her ribs and the old woman died immediately. So this is what happened in Rumbek East in a place called Akuel Yol,” -Major Elijah Mabor a representative of the Sudan police explained to Sudan’s Eye Radio.
“Our role as police is to provide safety and separate fights. The ram was apprehended and currently under custody at a Police Station of Maleng Agok Payam.”
Major Mabor declared the owner as innocent since the ram solely attacked the poor woman to death.
“The owner is innocent and the ram is the one who perpetrated the crime so it deserves to be arrested then later on the case shall be forwarded to customary court where the case can be handed amicably.”
For the next three years in a military camp in Aduel County headquarters in Sudan’s Lakes State, the ram will be restricted from moving about.
The owner of the ram, Duony Manyang Dhal, has been asked to compensate the family of the victim with over five cows as ruled by a local court.
It is still not known if the ram is remorseful for his crime.
