SPLA, SPLA/M

This article uses the terms "SPLA" and "SPLA/M" but never defines what they actually mean. JIP | Talk 10:36, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Revisions

Hello! I am an undergraduate student at Rice University who will be working on this article as part of a course assignment. I would add to add more information about South Sudan's political system and constitution to provide more of a background on the difference between what is stated and what is actually protected. I would also like to more fully describe civil liberties and freedoms in South Sudan, including women's, children's, ethnic minority, and religious rights. I would appreciate any advice or comments that you have. Jwang19 (talk) 01:40, 12 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review

This page is very well organized, and I like what has been added. However, here could be more viewpoints on the topics presented, and I would love to see more on Human Rights and not solely the lack thereof! Great work! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gilperkins (talk • contribs) 22:58, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jwang19! I really enjoyed reading your article and learned a lot from it. I especially appreciate how comprehensive you have made the article, covering many topics within the issue of human rights in South Sudan. There are just a few small things I’d suggest editing to perfect your article. First, I’d suggest adding a citation after each sentence, in case someone changes around the order of your article in the future. Next, being consistent with things like “%” and “percent” and making sure to explain acronyms like SPLA the first time you use them will increase the readability of your article. Finally, a few more images will make it more visually appealing. Great work!! Athomas1995 (talk) 21:59, 28 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request

Hello, I am a legal practitioner and researcher. I would like to suggest adding a new section regarding international human rights rulings on South Sudan. These two cases from the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights (ACHPR) provide significant documentation on judicial independence and human rights in the country.


​Proposed New Section and its Contents:

ACHPR Rulings on South Sudan

Since 2023, the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights (ACHPR) has issued several significant rulings against the Republic of South Sudan, highlighting systemic issues with judicial independence and the protection of human rights:

​Communication 801/21: In August 2024, the ACHPR determined in Afekuru Animu Risasi Amitai v. The Republic of South Sudan that the state engaged in the arbitrary deprivation of nationality, rendering the Complainant, a former government official, effectively stateless. The Commission found a "definite and inexcusable violation" of the right to a fair trial, noting that the High Court in Juba failed to hear her civil challenge for over 3 years, rendering local remedies "unavailable and ineffective". The Commission ruled that the State address the arbitrary deprivation of nationality and the subsequent human rights violations suffered by Afekuru Animu Risasi Amitai and restore her nationality certificate and passport, as well as provide access to court to claim compensation for the violations suffered.

​ Communication 796/22: In November 2023, the ACHPR ruled in Rose Modong Samuel and Three Others v. The Republic of South Sudan that the state was liable for the forced eviction and property destruction carried out by Mading Ngor Akech Kuai, a state affiliated journalist who utilized armed military personnel to violently seize land and intentionally destroyed the Complainants' properties in Lologo area, in Juba. The Commission determined that the state permitted the land grab, the destruction of property, the blockage of access to court, and the abduction and torture of the victims' legal counsel, John Gerry, to obstruct the legal process. It found the Respondent State in violation of Articles 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12(1&2), 14, 16(1), 18(1&3), 25, and 26 of the African Charter; and concluded that the stated violations which are a negation of the fundamental principle of the rights stipulated in the African Charter, stem from the inaction of the State towards educating its security officials on human rights. The ruling noted a lack of judicial independence (Article 26), as arrest warrants against Mading Ngor were ignored by state security forces. The Commission ruled that the State return the property, cease the fabricated criminal charges against the advocate, provide compensation to the Complainants for the violations, and investigate the state actors involved in the violations.

The ACHPR ruled that the arbitrary revocation of nationality rendered the complainant stateless and found that the South Sudanese judiciary's failure to hear the case for more than three years constituted a violation of Article 7.
