Police have stepped up security ahead of Sudan People's Liberation
Army (SPLA) day on Wednesday. The day marks 29 years of existence of
SPLA under the theme "Border demarcation is vital for peace and
stability."



South Sudan's Police spokesperson Maj. Gen Biar Mading Biar says
officers will be on standby to make sure there is no criminal activity
during the celebrations.

"We have already prepared ourselves to control the security during the
celebration and even for the days and the years to come," said Mading.

Mading also hinted on the incident on Sunday where a teacher the late
Tabitha Oleche from Dr John Garang International School was shot dead.

"It is now being investigated. After the end of the investigation, it
will be referred to the judiciary for the trial and then if the
accused is convicted and his fate is decided," Mading said of the
suspect in the death of Oleche.

"It's too scientific investigation, it is a technical work. Its
conducted with carefulness without hurry because if you do it in hurry
you may destroy the case which may benefit the justice".

Oleche was shot in the head as the car she was in drove past Dr John
Garang Mausoleum when the flag was being lowered.
