ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia - Political prisoners taken into custody shortly after massive violence broke out in South Sudan say they want to take a seat at peace talks as an independent, third group.

One of the seven detainees now in Ethiopia, Adwok Nyaba, said the group backs Riek Machar, South Sudan's former vice-president, politically. But Nyaba said Machar has chosen to fight a military struggle against South Sudan's government and the political prisoners instead want to wage a political struggle.

Nyaba said the seven political leaders want to see reforms, just as Machar does.

South Sudan's government and rebel leaders agreed to a cease-fire last month, but violence is still ongoing. Peace talks were supposed to continue this week but have not yet made any progress.
