Nasir Trial Adjourned as MP Gatwech Lam Puoch Begins Defense ‎

-



‎The Special Court handling the Nasir incident has adjourned proceedings until Monday, June 15, after the third accused, MP Gatwech Lam Puoch, began presenting his defense.

‎

‎Gatwech, a member of the National Legislative Assembly representing Nasir County, rejected allegations linking him to activities related to the Nasir incident. 

‎

He told the court that his actions were part of his constitutional duties as an elected representative and were aimed at reducing tensions in Nasir and Ulang counties.

‎

‎The lawmaker said a press conference cited by prosecutors was intended to encourage dialogue, address rumors, and help prevent conflict rather than incite violence. 

‎

He maintained that he was fulfilling his responsibility to represent and speak on behalf of his constituents.

‎

‎Gatwech also argued that the Nasir crisis should be viewed within the wider context of challenges facing the implementation of the 2018 peace agreement, citing concerns raised by various political actors about delays in the peace process.

‎

‎The court session ended after his opening testimony, with proceedings set to resume next week as he continues presenting his defense.
