“Three of our men are being detained and we have gathered reports that the government there (Kenya) are working with security operatives from South Sudan to deport all of them to Juba where they will be possibly tortured and maybe killed by the rustles regime of Salva,” the source said referring to President Salva Kiir Mayardiit.
“It has become a tradition for Kenya to deport and hand over South Sudanese to the government in Juba,” the source added.
He further added the detainees, which he identified as Makoi Majak, Anter Clement and Bol Bol, are registered with the UNHCR as refugees and the Kenyan government should respect their rights to seek protection from their government at home which they fear.
