The two young men were executed by firing squad in public at an square in Awdhegle town, an Al shabaab stronghold in Somalia’s southern lower Shabelle region on Saturday afternoon, according to the father. “My son was staying only 20 days in Awdhegle town for family visit and was killed by Al shabaab, accusing him of spying for Somali government,” cried the father. Awdhegle, which is a strategic district in Lower Shabelle region fell to Al shabaab just three months ago after Somali army and African Union forces abandoned the town.
