Peter Biar Ajak’s lawyer has argued the activist's detention in South Sudan is in clear violation of his rights
A CAMBRIDGE University student facing the death penalty in South Sudan after criticising the government is being detained in a “hellhole” his lawyer has said.
Peter Biar Ajak, an outspoken critic of the South Sudanese government, was arrested last July by South Sudan’s National Security Service.
His detention is “in clear violation of his rights under international law”, the BBC reported Ajak’s lawyer said.
Ajak’s case has recently been raised in the US Congress by congresswoman Madeleine Dean.
