The LRA has murdered more than 2,700 people in southern Sudan and abducted over 3,500 others since September 2008, when the latest wave of attacks began, according to Roman Catholic Bishop Eduardo Hiiboro Kussala of Tombura-Yambio diocese in Southern Sudan.
“Many of our children are still in the hands of the LRA. We do not know if they are alive or dead. Those who have managed to escape bear the physical and mental scars of suffering and will never be the same again,” he said.
