An Aweil judge has killed himself after the state government turned down his request for financial assistance to seek treatment.
“The judge killed himself using a pistol and it was found out that he wrote a note saying that he killed himself because the government rejected to fund him in order to seek treatment,” a government official in Aweil said.
