Police seize office of Warrap state finance minister

The Warrap State minister of Finance has said his office has been seized by police.

Achuil Akoc Mangardit said he did not receive any formal communication of an order to seize the office from either the state governor or the police commissioner.

He said he returned yesterday from Juba after hearing allegations that he had stolen state money.

Achuil Akoc said he did not even report to office this morning but was told the police had surrounded the building.

“I do not know what has happened because I was on treatment purpose, for 21 days, Mr. Akoc explained. “I had gone to process my visa.”

“When I was in Kampala, I received an allegation that Achuil Akoc, the minister of finance ran away with money from Juba.

“Then I said I would go back to Warrap to find out the root causes of the allegation.’’

No one from the Warrap State Police was available for comment.
