The South Sudanese army has dismissed a new report linking high-ranking officials to the theft of millions of dollars from the country.
Acting spokesperson of the Sudan Peoples’ Liberation Army (SPLA) Colonel Santo Dominic said that the report, by international anti-graft agency Enough Project, is a well designed plot to tarnish the image of the force at international level by “enemies of peace in South Sudan.”
