The second in command of the Ugandan Lord's Resistance Army rebels, Vincent Otti, is dead, south Sudan's deputy leader Riak Machar has confirmed.
"I was officially informed by [LRA leader] Joseph Kony that Vincent Otti is dead," said Mr Machar, who is mediating peace talks in south Sudan.
He broke the news after meeting members of LRA negotiating team, following their return to the talks venue.
The LRA had previously insisted Mr Otti was alive and under house arrest.
