Warrap police arrest woman for faking pregnancy
Police in Twic County, Warrap State, have arrested a 19-year-old woman accused of faking a pregnancy and deceiving both her family and her boyfriend’s family.
Maj. Manyok Ring Atem, Director of the Crime Section said the arrest followed a report from family members who became suspicious after the woman allegedly claimed she had given birth and that the baby had died shortly after delivery.
"The woman faked a pregnancy at home, and her husband believed she was pregnant. She claimed she went to the hospital to deliver and later returned carrying a bundle of clothes with a coconut drupe placed inside as the baby's head," Atem said.
He added that the woman told relatives the newborn had died, prompting the family to begin burial preparations.
"She came back home crying and told family members that the baby had died. A grave was dug, and burial arrangements began. According to local customs, elderly women were called to prepare the body. However, when they untied the clothes to see the baby's face, a coconut drupe fell out, exposing the deception," he said.
Police said investigations indicated the suspect had begun the deception after meeting her boyfriend in Wau, later informing him she was pregnant. The boyfriend reportedly informed his family, and marriage arrangements followed.
Authorities said the boyfriend’s family had already paid 11 cows as dowry.
Maj. Atem said the suspect would be taken to court on charges related to deception.

Bureau of Statistics chief says University of Juba is producing degrees without skills
National Bureau of Statistics Director General Dr. Ting Mayai has sparked debate after accusing the University of Juba of producing “degrees without skills.”
Speaking at a public event in Juba on Saturday, Dr. Ting first praised Vice Chancellor Prof. John Akec for his decisive leadership, saying he admires leaders who make decisions and stand by them.
But he later criticized the country’s oldest public university, arguing that it is failing to produce graduates with practical skills needed for the labour market.
“What we have are degrees without skills,” Ting said, adding that South Sudan needs graduates with competence to support national development.
His remarks come amid growing concern over education quality after officials said some South Sudanese students sent abroad on scholarships perform poorly despite high grades.
Prof. Akec appeared to respond in a Facebook post, saying speeches alone cannot build a country.
“Serious developmental projects, rule of law, security of property, and enforcement of contracts will,” he wrote.
