 SPLM police have yesterday launched investigations into the
 attempted assassination early last week of Daniel Kodi, Deputy Governor of South
 Kordofan State, in Rabak, White Nile State.
 A suspect to the attempt is being interrogated and, once investigations are through,
 will be handed over to White Nile Police.
 Kodi survived the attempt on his life when a person detonated a hand grenade while
 the deputy governor was speaking to SPLM supporters at a ceremony in Rabak. South
 Kordofan State authorities say another man was arrested on Saturday in connection to
 the attempt.
 On his part, Deputy Governor Kodi said some parties (which he declined to name)
 have been trying to assassinate him since the signing of the CPA. He further accused
 the NCP of arming militias in South Kordofan State and called for speeding up the
 implementation of the Protocol on Security Arangements and DDR for the militias.
