A member of the village, Abel Abok said, “We were woken up with gun shots, but we were afraid to come out because the gun shots were sporadic. We heard members of the family shouting and calling for help but we were afraid to come out.
“When we later came out the gunmen had left. We discovered they have killed all these people.”
