One Killed in Somalia Bombing
[AnNahar] An engineer working with a Turkish company was killed on Thursday in a kaboom in Somalia's capital Mogadishu, police said.There was no immediate claim of responsibility, although Al-Qaeda-affiliated Shabaab rebels have been blamed for a string of killings targeting politicians, returning diaspora and anyone linked to foreign companies or the internationally-backed government. "He was a construction engineer and worked with Turkish companies. We don't know why he was targeted but investigations are going on," said police officer Abdilahi Mohammed. "They attached an bomb to his car and remotely detonated it," he added. Last week a U.S.-Somali engineer who had come back to his birth nation to help rebuild the war-torn country was also rubbed out in Mogadishu. Posted by: trailing wife 2014-11-28 |
