The Acholi parliamentary Group is to release a dossier on the atrocities committed by the LRA and the government since 1986, the acting chairperson, Reagan Okumu has said.
Addressing journalists at Parliament yesterday, Okumu said the dossier, compiled from both local and international organisations, revealed that from 1986 to 1991 the LRA were responsible for 17% and the Government to 83% of the atrocities. From 1992 to 2006, he said, the LRA was responsible for 81% of the atrocities and the Government 9%.
“Now that truth and reconciliation have been put on the agenda in the peace process in Juba, everybody should take responsibility for the atrocities committed,” Okumu declared.
He also challenged the Sudan government to take responsibility for accusations that most of the children abducted by the LRA were sold to Sudan as slaves.
