South Sudan Politicians Embezzled $36mn – UN Panel

High-ranking politicians and bureaucrats in South Sudan have siphoned off at least $36 million in public funds, sometimes with the connivance of international corporations and banks, a UN commission said on Wednesday.

“Looting and pillage aren’t just offshoots of war –- they are arguably the main drivers of the conflict.
