Gabriel Duop Lam
General Gabriel Duop Lam is a high-ranking officer in the South Sudan People's Defence Forces (SSPDF) and a close ally of Vice-President Riek Machar. He was recently arrested amidst tensions between the SSPDF and rebel factions in Upper Nile state, sparking concerns over the stability of the 2018 power-sharing agreement that aims to maintain peace following years of civil war. His arrest, which the government has linked to accusations of collaboration with rebels, threatens to undermine the fragile peace in South Sudan.
