Western Bahr El-Ghazal State Ministry of Gender, Child and Social Welfare assures the public of its commitment to follow all kinds of gender-based violence cases, including rape until the victim get her rights and the suspect face the law.
Director-General, Ann Daniel Ali, says sometimes the families of victims tend to end up the case by receiving money from the suspect without their notice.
But as the ministry officials is following up families in their places and bring them back to the law, she adds.
Daniel Ali reveals that in most cases the victims are not aware of what is happening and so the ministry officially drags the perpetrator to court for justice to take place.
The director-general says they are following victim’s rights because when two families agree, the victim will get nothing from the compensation.
The Catholic Radio Network (CRN) is a media project constituted by community-based radio stations broadcasting in Frequency Modulation from Juba, Yei, Torit, Yambio, Rumbek, Tonj, Wau, and Malakal. CRN has also a station in the Nuba Mountains. All the stations share the same vision and mission, and are bound by common editorial and administrative policies. All stations broadcast shared programs in English: news, civic education, and other educational programs. Due to the heterogeneous realities of South Sudan, each station is rooted in its locality and broadcasts locally produced culture-sensitive programs in the languages which are understood by the local people. For its outreach, CRN has a potential audience of about seven million people, considering the influx of returnees to South Sudan after the Sudan Population Census 2008.
