Sexual violence persists both in and outside conflicts, even as senior officials continue to endorse extrajudicial killings, and the forced recruitment and abduction of boys and girls into combat or sexual slavery continue unchecked.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drawing primarily from the Commission\u2019s independent investigations in South Sudan throughout 2024, alongside engagements with authorities, open-source and forensic information, the report reveals how political and military elites continue to fuel violence and instability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report describes the situation in Tombura, where, in 2024, armed forces and militias inflicted extreme violence against civilians along ethnic lines, deepening the unhealed traumas and divisions stemming from the 2021 conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Local and national political elites are implicated in pursuing violent, divisive politics; many have retained public and military offices despite past violations and have not faced accountability for their crimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur investigations revealed that conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) remains systematic, brutal and widespread, with survivors reporting a lack of access to critical reproductive and psychological healthcare. The testimonies of children forced into combat or held as sexual slaves underscore a systemic failure to protect South Sudan\u2019s future generation. These acts constitute grave violations of international law, yet the perpetrators continue to operate with impunity\u201d, Sooka emphasized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe repetition of these human rights violations is deeply connected to pervasive impunity, the lack of accountability in governance, and the failures to properly direct the country\u2019s national wealth toward establishing credible institutions and systems,\u201d&nbsp; said Commissioner&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohchr.org\/en\/hr-bodies\/hrc\/co-h-south-sudan\/bio#afako\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Barney Afako<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is why in many of our recommendations, in addition to a focus on human rights law, we return to the institution-building commitments in the Revitalized Peace Agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In September 2024, parties to the Revitalized Agreement agreed to a further two-year extension of its transitional political arrangements, commencing this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis extension must not be squandered or become just another excuse for avoiding political transition. Instead, it must be used to implement the core outstanding elements of the Revitalized Agreement, including the commitment to adopt a permanent constitution, which offers a blueprint for sustainable peace and stability,\u201d Afako added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although &#8216;severe funding constraints&#8217; were cited to justify the extension, the Commission\u2019s report notes that between September 2022 and August 2024, government revenues approached $3.5 billion, primarily from oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yet, courts, hospitals, and schools remain in disrepair, judicial institutions are underfunded, and civil servants remain unpaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFinancing essential services and rule of law institutions requires an end to the corruption. The theft of national wealth robs citizens of justice, education, and healthcare. Without addressing this systemic looting, no peace agreement will ever translate into meaningful change\u201d, said Commissioner&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohchr.org\/en\/hr-bodies\/hrc\/co-h-south-sudan\/bio#carlos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Carlos Castresana Fern\u00e1ndez<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report also examines the introduction in 2024 of the \u201cGreen Book\u201d state law in Warrap, which purports to authorize extrajudicial killings by firing squad&nbsp;for suspected cattle raiding and intra-communal violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Commission found that this law has entrenched a culture of lawlessness, implicating senior officials and the State Government in gross human rights violations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It further inflames tensions, as &#8216;Green Book&#8217; offences are selectively applied to prosecute certain sides in intra-communal conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With only one judge appointed for the entire state and inadequate funding, Warrap\u2019s judiciary is crippled, leaving victims without justice and fuelling cycles of retaliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Government\u2019s tacit endorsement of these killings further inflames tensions. We documented multiple instances where Green Book provisions were selectively applied to settle scores, undermining fragile community relations. The Green Book must be overruled immediately. Warrap\u2019s judiciary requires urgent funding and support, or violence will remain the default form of justice,\u201d Fern\u00e1ndez added.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During their visit to South Sudan last week, the three Commissioners met with survivors of human rights violations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her statement to the Council today, Chairperson Sooka highlighted these engagements, echoing civil society and international partners\u2019 concerns over the entrenched repression and lack of political will to break cycles of gross human rights violations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Commissioners also underscored the government\u2019s longstanding neglect of essential institutions, including courts, hospitals, schools, and welfare services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Soldiers belonging to the South Sudan People&#8217;s Defence Forces (SSPDF). |File Photo|.
