Somaliland Govt sends huge arms consignment back to Sudan
2015-02-04
BERBERA, Somalia(land) -- Following a lengthy phone conversation between Sudanese President Omar Al Bashir and Somaliland leader, the separatist region has sent back huge arms consignment, Garowe Online reports. Multiple independent sources in Berbera Port City confirmed the move to Garowe Online.
Just a little too obvious...
Cranes reloaded MV Shakir with the seized weapons shipment including battle tanks, artillery pieces and modern combat vehicles late on Monday night, two days after public display.

Sudan's Al Bashir is said to have disclosed that the heavy weaponry was meant to be sold at a market in United Arab Emirates to Somaliland President Ahmed Mohamed Mohamud (Siilaanyo).

The controversial consignment prompted lambaste from the breakaway region's arch rival to the east, Puntland.
