A released South Sudan Community Action for Peace & Development Association or CAPADA, community based organization or CBO Executive Director says he is ready to sue the National Security Service to court to seek justice for three months’ detention without any charge.
Ali Ashraf Amule tells CRN in an interview that he was treated as a criminal since March until July when the court judge told him to go home free that he did not have a case to answer.
He says after a go ahead from Human Rights Commission he needs an explanation in the court of law why his name was defamed by ill-treatment as a criminal.
The freed Director says he feels his dignity and integrity was lowered and that imprisonment for three months without a charge was defamation.
South Sudan Transitional Constitution, 2011 Bill of Rights guarantees protection of life and human dignity, saying ‘Every person has the inherent right to life, dignity and the integrity of his or her person which shall be protected by law; no one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his or her life’.
