Somalia: Anti Islamist rally happens in Galgadud region
2006-11-01
(SomaliNet) Hundreds of angry protestors have on Tuesday rallied in Abudwaq town of Galgadud region in central Somalia in protest of the recent brutal act by the Islamic fighters in which they executed four wounded men who were belonging to the militia loyal to Colonel Bare Hirale, the leader of former defeated Juba Valley Alliance and minister of interim government based in Baidoa city in southwest Somalia.

The demonstrators were complaining about the Islamist killing acts to wounded prisons of war in Bu'ale city, the capital of middle Juba region in southern Somalia. Gunmen of Islamic Courts entered the hospital where they had killed the injured militiamen who were laying on beds. The people in Abudwaq who were taking part in the protest were chanting anti Islamist slogans and burnt the sort of turbans knows with Islamic fighters to wear. This shows mounting hatred to Islamic Courts and lessens the support for Islamists.

Most of the local officials addressed the rally strongly condemned the acts in which Islamic fighters finished wounded POWs as barbaric, inhuman and unacceptable. They said it was unjustified and un Islamic acts Abudwaq is dominant by the clan in which the executed militias were belonging.
