UN warns peace deal delay risks relapse into civil war

UN commissioners visiting the country said key elements of the agreement were behind schedule, including putting in place a new constitution, planning elections, integrating rebels into the national army and setting up a court to try perpetrators of atrocities.

The UN team met government officials, displaced people and victims of sexual violence - some of whom said they had been attacked by government troops.

Tens of thousands of people were killed and millions were displaced in the civil war.
