Authorities in Northern Bahr El Ghazel State said on Wednesday that a Sudanese business man who raped and murdered a five-year-old girl was executed by hanging.

The Governor of Northern Bahr El Ghazel State, Simon Ober Mawut, said Saber Abu Sam who was found guilty of raping and killing the late Abuk Lual in 2022, was executed Wednesday at Wau Central Prison, Western Bahr El Ghazal State.

 “I want to confirm to the general public, that finally justice has been served for the departed Angel Abuk Lual, this clearly shows that our laws are indeed supreme. I have witnessed this execution being implemented by two judges. I’m here to confirm to the doubting Thomases that the case has finally been brought to an end with the execution,’’ said Mawut while briefing journalists in Wau town.

In 2022, Saber Abu Sam reportedly committed the heinous crime of molesting Abuk Lual at Ayuang Residential Area in Aweil town of Northern Bahr el Ghazal State.

On May 30th 2022, the accused was sentenced to death by hanging after he was found guilty of defiling and killing 5-year-old Abuk Lual Laul.

Omer Mohamed, an associate of Saber Abu Sam, was handed a five-year jail term for harboring the offender.
