Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-25

[00:00:00]Following the individuals, honorable Kok Kom Geng and honorable Ayiik Ayiik Kok and honorable Achana Kok Achana. These are the three individuals that have been detained.

[00:00:16]The suspects were apprehended and charged with forgery of signatures, unlawful use of presidential symbol of authority, smuggling of documents, and interfering with the ongoing investigations. That is to say, honorable Kok Kom Geng and honorable Ayiik Kok.

[00:00:43]They did forge the signature of His Excellency, the President of the Republic. So, their immunity has been lifted. Welcome to Juba Monitor podcast. So, the National Security has actually revealed the reason why the two MPs were arrested two to three days ago.

[00:01:04]And the two MPs that were arrested are Kok Kom Geng and Ayiik Ayiik Kok. Ayiik Ayiik Kok is the brother to the Vice President for Services Cluster, Mr. Hussein Abdelbagi. That is his brother.

[00:01:21]So, the spokesperson of the National Security actually came out and gave a reason as to why these people were were were arrested. And he said the reason why they were arrested is due to forgery of the president's signature. So, these people actually forged President Salva Kiir's signature for the political detainees or the people that were said to be political detainees to be released, the 16 people. And the 16 people are who? Are Benjamin Bol Mel, Simon Akuien, Maria Dongrin, uh Dominic Duke, A Jing Deng A Jing, Bol Manase, uh Well, there there were a lot of people I can't remember all their names, but there were 16 in total. Those people they were to be released based on the letter of Com Com Gang. As per the letter of Com Com Gang that we saw, it was said that Com Com Gang actually uh wrote this proposal to the to the president and president say, "Well, if this is what you are writing, please come to me and explain or come and defend your case." He went there, explained why the arrest of all these individuals, the 16, actually fall into uh political detainees category. And President Kiir was happy with this explanation, and he went ahead and let them give his signature for them to be released.

[00:02:48]That was what was being said initially.

[00:02:51]And then it was being said that that decision was turned over, was turned around, or was turned around by Aliu, the Minister of Interior, and Adut Salva Kiir, and Deng Wol, the executive director in the office of the president. As per that time, it was said they were the one that turned turned over or that yeah, they turned over the decision to release the 16 simply simply because they did not want these people to be released. That was the case that was running on social media, and actually so a lot of big people in society actually calling for Gang Gang to be released because why would a president approve something and then turn around and let people be arrested? That was the discussion. And when I I look at it from that angle of people that were supporting it, then I was wondering who exactly that can come after the president and turn his decision around.

[00:03:51]And the third person that have actually been arrested is a lady by the name of Chan Akot.

[00:03:57]Chan Akot seemed to like problems.

[00:04:00]Because Chan Akot was arrested in November of 2025 along with those of Bol Mel. Because of what? Because of coup allegations. You remember that big coup that was said to be the reason why Bol Mel was relieved dismissed and fired from National Security.

[00:04:22]She was said to be among the people that actually went to Bol Mel compound to go and build how they would overtake the government, how they would do the coup.

[00:04:30]So she was arrested. She stayed there for a couple of months or a couple of weeks. And then people called for our female to be released. She was released.

[00:04:38]And now in this case of forgery, she's in again.

[00:04:42]She's up she's with the with the with the two.

[00:04:46]She's with the with the two. How do you call them? With the two MPs.

[00:04:50]And the spokesperson of the parliament, South Sudan parliament, Mr. Kimori actually came out to announce or to confirm the same thing that these people had actually committed a very big crime, which is the forgery of the president's signature.

[00:05:09]And so for that reason, they were lifting the immunity that the MPs had.

[00:05:15]Because MPs have immunity that prevent them from being arrested.

[00:05:21]But when it is lifted by the parliament with the power to do so, they can be arrested.

[00:05:27]But for them to be prosecuted, it has to be lifted first. So that's why they had to go to parliament to let it be lifted.

[00:05:34]And then now these two guys are going to face it rough with no more immunity for them.

[00:05:40]And yeah, and that's it. Like it was it actually bad to lift the immunity? No, it wasn't bad because take for example if you were to take away the life of somebody.

[00:05:52]Do you think your immunity will apply?

[00:05:54]No, it won't apply. It will have to be lifted right away. So that's some crime when you commit your immunity is lifted as soon as possible and then you face the law.

[00:06:04]That immunity does not guarantee you the right now to be making mistake here and there. So let's take this one minute to listen to uh the speaker. No, to the spokesperson of the parliament and then also to speak to listen to John Kumuri, the spokesperson of the national security as he addressed the media.

[00:06:27]Uh national security service internal security bureau informs the public of the arrest and detention of three individuals.

[00:06:40]Uh the following individuals are Honorable Komkonge and Honorable Ayiya Akot and Honorable Achana Akot. Okay, these are the three individuals that have been detained.

[00:06:57]The suspect we have apprehended and charged with forgery of signatures unlawful use of presidential symbol of authority smuggling of documents and interfering with ongoing investigations.

[00:07:18]Involving 16 detained individuals accused of financial and other related crimes. So that's the reason why they are apprehended.

[00:07:29]Period of this arrest the national security service internal security bureau acting as complainant initiated criminal case. We have already opened a case number 1890 The case number is 1891 on May 13th, 2026 at Northern Police Division.

[00:07:55]Through the public prosecution attorney.

[00:08:00]Ladies and gentlemen, the case file was forwarded to the suspects' respective institution for lifting of their immunities.

[00:08:11]So, their immunities have been lifted already.

[00:08:14]The suspects were arrested under Section 341, 62, 76, 75, 362, 361, 359, 357, and Section 48 of the Penal Code Act, 2008.

[00:08:38]They are currently detained at the ISB detention facility. So, these people are with us for protective purposes, pending further legal proceedings.

[00:08:50]The National Security Service, Internal Security Bureau, reminds all the public officials, foreign nationals, and private business persons operating in the Republic of South Sudan to refrain from acts that violate their official duties. Such conduct not only undermines the national laws of the Republic of South Sudan, but also constitute the crimes, offenses punishable under the law of the Republic of South Sudan.

[00:09:28]There was a very important decision taken by the Parliament unanimously by lifting the immunity of two honorable members.

[00:09:44]That is to say, honorable Komkom Gang and honorable I I Kwall.

[00:09:54]These two honorable members their immunity was lifted unanimously by the members in Parliament because they committed a serious crime of forgery attempting to forge or not actually attempting, they did forge the signature of His Excellency the President of the Republic. So, their immunity has been lifted.

[00:10:27]All right. So, we have listened to them.

[00:10:29]They already confirmed the same thing that I was actually talking about 2 to 3 minutes ago.

[00:10:35]Uh my first question will be do I think the lifting of the MP's immunity after they were arrested after they were arrested was unprocedural? No, it is a regular thing that is done in every country that when a an sitting MP commit a crime, their immunity has to be lifted so that the government can proceed with the prosecution or the prosecutors can go ahead with the prosecution that they have So, lifting of the immunity and forgery of the president signature is is not unprocedural to the way that things are done.

[00:11:15]Uh but the question is should their immunity have been lifted before they were arrested? I don't think if it is possible.

[00:11:24]Because you can lift a immunity for someone that has not been arrested.

[00:11:30]So, you let them be arrested and now the case is brought before the parliament that we have arrested these people for committing this crime. Can you please now lift their immunity so that we can proceed to the next level?

[00:11:42]Because how do you lift an immunity on someone that has not been arrested?

[00:11:47]Well, you are not arrested, you are innocent, and you are as good as any other person in society. So, what the use of lifting immunity? So, in this case, lifting of their immunity was procedural. And that was the right way to do it. And my other question is, do I think it is possible? Do I think it is possible to forge uh the president signature or president signature?

[00:12:12]Yes, it is very possible. But it is Is it a crime? Yes, it is a crime. But how is it a crime? Take for example, if I happen now to know the signature of the president, I can just sit here and practice and practice until I get it right as President Kibaki does it.

[00:12:31][clears throat] Me doing it on a piece of paper is not forging it. But me uh getting a check that is a president signature and putting the president signature so that a person that I know or me myself to be given that money, that's where the crime comes in.

[00:12:51]Now, I'm using the signature of the president because it has that power that it belong to the president to misuse the institution that are there. So, that's where it become a That's where it become a criminal case. But if I just practice how to do the president signature and I'm not signing any document, I'm not submitting any document to anybody, then it is not a crime. But when I do it intentionally to execute some of the some of the obligation or some of the duties that president will execute using that signature, and I want them to happen, then yeah, I'm forging the president's signature to execute something and it now become a now become a crime. So, these people, the two people and I channel got wanted to use the president's signature to release the political detainees.

[00:13:44]Because who is above the president? If the president had said release them and the signature is there, who is there to stop it?

[00:13:53]That would be their thinking.

[00:13:55]And who actually came up with the idea of who came up with the idea of uh president uh signature look like this and this is how we can do it.

[00:14:05]Uh it's three of them and this is why I say three of them. Uh the ComCom gang, this guy is the chairperson of the parliamentary committee.

[00:14:19]So, most of the things that come to the parliament have to come through him with the signature of the president.

[00:14:25]So, you see there this is where he's getting access to signature of the president and how they look and maybe uh like how to put the seal and other things when they're passing out like for example, if they're going to appoint uh members of parliament.

[00:14:40]As much as it would seem like it's coming from the office of the president in between that there's coordination between people at the parliament and and the J1 office.

[00:14:49]So, this is where he thought that he had access to some of the information and some of the other document.

[00:14:55]That what gave him that that courage to do it. Number two, I I A call uh the brother to Hussein Abdel Bagi.

[00:15:08]His own brother work with the president.

[00:15:11]His own brother is a vice president. So, does he have access to how the president's signature look like? How other seals that belong to the office of the president look like? Yes, I have access to those. And this is where like he got that courage that he could do it.

[00:15:28]This is what gave him the courage.

[00:15:30]It's not like any other person in the street that can think I am going to forge President Kiir.

[00:15:36]You can practice how to do like Kiir does it, but you will not look for document and sign them thinking or saying that you are the president.

[00:15:44]Number three, Ateny Wek Ateny.

[00:15:47]How did she become so close to such kind of activities for her to believe in herself that she can actually forge or help in forgery of the president's signature.

[00:15:59]She was working in the office of the first lady.

[00:16:02]Uh I I am Marydit, the wife to the president. She was working in her office.

[00:16:09]So, now you see there like where the president thinks and whatever can easily get where she can easily get access to those when she was there before she got fired. So, these are all people that are way closer to that power. This is what gave them that courage that they can do it because of proximity to that power and other sales of the government that can be used in here and there.

[00:16:34]So, this is what gave them courage. And it's actually funny like uh how things work in this country.

[00:16:41]So, that's what they did. But my other question will be uh Okay, where did they get the courage?

[00:16:48]Like I've already said, it's the proximity to president in in one way or another. Ateny Wek former employees at the at the office of the first lady who is the wife to the president.

[00:17:01]I I am called the brother, too, uh Hussein Abdelbagi, who is a vice president.

[00:17:09]Com Com gang uh a chairperson of the parliamentary committee. They do a lot of correspondent between the parliament and the office of the president. This is where like they got that courage. We can do it, man. It's so easy. And and allegedly, it is said that they were paid some money.

[00:17:30]That I'm just going to take the figure that I was told. I'm not 100% sure if it is an actual figure. It was said that they were given 50 million US dollars to to forge the president's signature so that these people can be released.

[00:17:48]50,000 US dollars. To me, that's a lot of money uh for one to give for his release.

[00:17:58]It's better if you keep that money of yours and use it to bribe the judges at a later time so that the judges will do ruling in your favor. Because 50 million just going to three people, no. Like 16 of them. If one of them was to come up with 3 million US dollars based on allegation that were said they have committed. Yeah, maybe some of them have to have have up to that amount of money or more than that. So, they can easily raise it. But, is it actually worth it?

[00:18:25]No. If you have like that 3 to 4 million, keep it.

[00:18:30]If you get a judge that you can even give like 100,000 US dollars. This is how it's done. They will rule in your favor and then after the judgment, they will run out of the country.

[00:18:40]Or if it is too tough, give them 1 million. You'll be set free. They will work with your lawyers with how to turn the case around.

[00:18:48]So, why go extra mile in trying to in the forgery of the president's signature? Do it in in a lawful and lawful way. Then, it seem like the lawful process is being followed, but you are bending the law with use of your money at a later date.

[00:19:05]Because why would other people be prosecuted like those of Machar and his group and then these other group that I say to have stolen and now being free categorized as political detailing with no one being taken to court. So, for me uh that's why I thought like they were wasting their money if they had actually used that money.

[00:19:28]And how do they feel now?

[00:19:31]Now that all of them are in are in the blue house, the people that were trying to free them and the people that actually got themselves in trouble in the process of doing that. It's actually funny how they are sitting there and say, "Man, I tried to help you and you got me in this helping you had got me in this mess."

[00:19:48]Uh was I I and Gumgum and Achana got them going to do it for free? No.

[00:19:54]It's not worth risking your life just to do it for free. So, I'm pretty sure they were paid some money but not the 50 million being said.

[00:20:04]Uh but the other thing is will Achana got be actually be released again?

[00:20:12]She has repeated a crime, not the same crime but she has done another crime.

[00:20:17]Will she be forgiven and released like she was done few months ago?

[00:20:22]Um um I really don't know. I I really don't know. She might get through the court this process this time round.

[00:20:30]So, she might find herself in court for a real crime that she has committed now, the forgery of the president's signature. Unless like the three of them are going to snitch on one another and say, "No, me I didn't forge it myself.

[00:20:44]It was other people." But what how did these other people find out that all of them colluded in the forgery of the president's signature? So, there's a way that each of them is tied to this case. Why were other people not arrested?

[00:20:59]And there was something that was actually said by Dingball. After the two MPs were arrested, and people were saying that the document itself was prepared by Gum Gum, explained to Com Com gang, explained to the president, and president was in agreement, and signed it, and and let them to be released only for it to be turned around.

[00:21:25]Deng Bol, that was before this idea of people saying forgery or any confirmation of forgery came out. Deng Bol actually came out and said that President Kiir sometime do things and forget, or do things and and pretend to have forgotten so that he can get you in trouble.

[00:21:45]That's how it was. That's how I'm just paraphrasing what he wrote. And so my question would be, do I actually believe the statement of Deng Bol that might have that the document have been signed by the president and is now turning against them?

[00:21:59]>> [gasps] >> Yeah. So, I feel like this question should have been answered like few days ago, but now it is past that that stage of the discussion because it has already been confirmed that it was a forgery.

[00:22:13]So, high chances there's no way that it will easily sign document and forget.

[00:22:19]And how will he release everybody, including those of Bol Mel, and turn around and say he did not release them?

[00:22:27]How was he easily convinced about release of all these people then he just let it go without consulting with other people?

[00:22:36]And a lot of people have always said that President Kiir I did not arrest No, these people were not arrested without the knowledge were not arrested without the knowledge of the president.

[00:22:50]The president was well aware of them.

[00:22:53]And this is why these people got themselves in the trouble. So, why would president turn around and just release them like that by explanation of one individual.

[00:23:03]But why why were these people thinking that forging the president's signature and just take it to the right ministry for the release, it will just be action without confirmation that somebody will actually call the office and say, "Hey, I have this document in my office the person releasing people now. I have this document in my office that has been signed by the president saying these people have been released. So and so and so and so have all been released.

[00:23:31]What's happening?

[00:23:32]When was that?

[00:23:34]And will such kind of things be told to someone that's closer to President Kiir to go and ask "Is it true that you have released so and so and so?"

[00:23:48]Take for example, I was just going to use this example of Deng Wol uh the Ministry of Interior and the director of the National Security that it went to the Ministry of Interior uh Aleu.

[00:24:01]And then he looked at it, contacted Akec Tong and then they called Deng Wol and say, "Hey, there's this letter in our in our office that said so and so and so need to be released that has been signed by the president.

[00:24:17]Can you please confirm if this one is actually true?"

[00:24:21]And then Deng Wol maybe is not that tightly close with the president. He might have reached out to Adut and say, "This is what I'm hearing.

[00:24:29]Can you please go and talk with your dad and see if he has actually released these people?" And then maybe Adut went and asked her dad uh "Is it true that you are releasing so and so and so and so and so based on the document that's in so and so office?"

[00:24:45]Then is that said, "No, I've not released anybody. Where did Where did I release that and where that document?"

[00:24:51]And this is now where they traced and went and arrest those people.

[00:24:55]So it was actually bad thinking for these people to think that nothing will be confirmed by just signing things and sending there in the name of the president. But, how did they actually believe that such a kind of thing can happen? I will say maybe there have been documents that have been done the same way in the in the past where people have actually signed and sent it to somewhere, and then they were approved and people got whatever that they wanted. Either it was money to it it was X and X and let them move on with nobody detecting that president did not do that. So, it might be might have been a loophole that they actually saw and then they were just going with it, flowing with it. It's something that they have done in the past. They can always repeat it. But, I think they were dealing at the wrong time. They should have think twice about this because the case of these individuals has been politicized and it's always in the public domain. If they were going to be released, people were going to discuss about them and they were going to come in the public limelight.

[00:25:59]Okay, so here we have a few clarifications.

[00:26:02]>> [laughter] >> Okay. I know I was not part of the discussion, but I'm in the background.

[00:26:10]You must have made an error that even you are practicing, [clears throat] Mhm. just practicing the signature of the president and >> [snorts] >> you're not using it, then it's not a crime. That is also a crime.

[00:26:23]Why would you be practicing something that you're not going to use?

[00:26:28]Like why? For what reason do you just pick on the president's signature and then you start practicing it? Assuming if the law enforcement authorities are to come across you trying to copy the signature, there's no crime in that.

[00:26:42]Take for example, the people that go to train for shooting. Mhm. When they train for shooting, just a regular people, they want to learn how to shoot.

[00:26:51]>> range. Yes. Mhm. Will they be arrested for crime? It is not a crime at that point. But if you go and shoot somebody, it's now become a crime. So, you sitting in your house, just practicing it practicing it with no intent of using it, then it is not a crime. Okay.

[00:27:10]>> [snorts] >> So, in South Sudan, those that are convicted of forging a presidential signature can face up to 5 years in prison or a fine or both under the penal code.

[00:27:24]Under the penal penal Is it penal or penal? Under the penal code act of 2008.

[00:27:30]>> But you have to define the word forgery, right? Like for it to count as a forgery It's you falsifying the document.

[00:27:37]>> Yes, when you put it on a document in the name of the person that you're trying to represent that is not you.

[00:27:42]>> Mhm. Now you have forged the signature.

[00:27:44]Yes. But when you just practicing on piece of paper you are not going to put it in any office, then you're not using it anywhere, so it's not a crime. Yeah, but like in this case If you have already went ahead to the point of preparing a document using the name of the people, you sign it and then now you take it to the ministry, it is now a crime because you are trying to use it.

[00:28:08]Okay. So, according to Google definition forging a presidential signature is a serious criminal offense that typically carries severe legal penalty penalties including imprisonment and fines. Such actions are often classified as felonies or serious crimes because they threaten constitutional order and the authority of the state. Yeah. It's usually considered as misrepresenting a symbol of the state because presidency is usually considered as one of the symbols of the state or national unity because you only get one president a country.

[00:28:48]Mhm. Yeah. So, if you forge the signature, it's like you're falsifying the information. Mhm. And it can make the documents to be invalid. And that's why like I think when you were discussing this the at the initial stages about these individuals being arrested and all that, that they had made a case that these individuals were the ones that had already been detained, there was no proper ground for their detention. So, the president was going to allow for them to be released.

[00:29:21]If at all these documents were falsified by the three individuals that we're currently discussing, Mhm. then that in itself is a very serious crime.

[00:29:31]And this is why they ended up being arrested. Mhm. And I hope the government is going to proceed with the [clears throat] case quickly because there's just too much backlog. Mhm.

[00:29:43]>> Cuz already if they have come out clearly to state like the spokesperson of national security just spoke about, Mhm.

[00:29:51]then why would you be detaining them for too long when you already have some sort of evidence that this is the crime they have committed? You already have a charge sheet. Mhm. Yeah, go ahead and take them to court. Yeah.

[00:30:06]All right. So, that's it for Jim O'Heir podcast. Please consider subscribing, share, like, and leave a comment. And if you are reaching out to this level, Arsenal won the English Premier League title. The what? English Premier League.

[00:30:20]>> I heard English. What is English?

[00:30:22]English.

[00:30:24]Okay. Uh Premier title after 22 years of dry spell. Hey. The last time that they won was in 2004.

[00:30:32]Okay. And Arsenal >> born then are already 22 years now.

[00:30:38]>> Yes, trophy-less. And a lot of Arsenal fans are happy everywhere. Okay.

[00:30:44]Including South Sudan.

[00:30:45]The Masira will be happening tomorrow as usual in Shilkate. Okay. And those from They they all they all come to Shilkate to do the Masira. So, they come from all parts >> parts of Shilkate. Yeah, so they come from all parts of Jubek to Shilkate to do the Masira and then they will be doing celebration. People were actually dancing tonight. Okay.

[00:31:05]>> And it's actually funny because they won it today, but it was not them that was playing. Mhm. It was the team that is number two. What number are they on the table? How many >> They're now number one. Okay.

[00:31:19]>> But with more points. Mhm. But the team that was playing today with another team, Man City, if they had won their game, then Arsenal would have waited until Sunday when they would play their last game. Okay. And if they win, that's when they will take the trophy. If they lose, the other team could have take it.

[00:31:36]So, what happened? This team ended up drawing. Oh, okay. So, So, now in that case, even if Arsenal was to lose the coming game on Sunday, They'll still be number >> They will still have more points even if this team go ahead and win the next game. Okay.

[00:31:56]>> So, they will defeat them by one point and that's how they won the the English Premier League. So, they have not won it technically. It was won for them.

[00:32:05]>> [laughter] >> But still, the points that they have are their points.

[00:32:10]>> [laughter] >> It's not like they were not added. They were added now new points from other teams. But yeah, it's very interesting because regardless, so long as you just maintain a certain number of points, Mhm. then you pray very hard that those who are behind you get defeated so that they don't overtake your points.

[00:32:31]>> Mhm. And then the ones that defeat them, you already have more points than them.

[00:32:36]So, it's a bonus on you. Mhm.

[00:32:39]And you don't like the way that people take it. Mhm. Uh even the team that have no uh bone to chew in this are always brought in. Okay.

[00:32:48]>> People were saying the huge pain Mhm.

[00:32:50]that happened that Arsenal has won Mhm.

[00:32:52]has gone to a team called Man United.

[00:32:55]Manchester United.

[00:32:56]>> Manchester United. They were not any closer to winning it.
