From [1] Compass Direct:

Security forces in the government-controlled state of Upper Nile in southern Sudan disrupted the construction of an Anglican church school in Renk last week, halting the builders and detaining the diocesan building supervisor for four days.

Claiming that the Episcopal Church of Sudan (ECS) school site had been earmarked for use by an Islamic non-governmental organization, members of the security forces came to the site on March 10 and forced the builders to stop work.
