A Sheep In South Sudan Sentenced To 3 Years In Prison For Killing A Woman
In a bizarre case, a sheep in South Sudan has been sentenced to jail for three years after it was found guilty of killing a woman.
According to Sudan’s Eye Radio, the ram was taken into police custody in South Sudan earlier this month after it attacked 45-year-old Adhieu Chaping.
The ram had headbutted Ms Chaping repeatedly, breaking her ribs. The 45-year-old died immediately because of her injuries.

Back then, the police had informed that the incident took place in Rumbek East in a place called Akuel Yol. The ram was apprehended and taken into custody at a Police Station in Maleng Agok Payam.
Now, citing local media reports, reported that the ram will be spending the next three years in a military camp in Aduel County headquarters in Sudan’s Lakes State.
The local court has ruled that the owner of the ram, Duony Manyang Dhal, will also have to hand over five cows to the victim’s family.
Moreover, Mr Dhal will also most likely lose the ram at the end of its sentence as customary laws in the region state that any domestic animal that kills a person is then given as compensation to the victim’s family.
