2018-08-18 |
[RADIOSHABELLE] A Somali military court in Mogadishu on Thursday sentenced a government soldier to death for killing a colleague in the army, Hassan Abshir Warsame in February this year. Osman was reported to have escaped the scene of the crime after shooting dead Warsame in Beledweyne city, the regional capital of Hiran. But he was jugged ... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not... last month at police recruiting centre in Mogadishu by the security forces, and taken to a custody before his sentence, according to the court statement. The military Court prosecutors said Osman committed the murder deliberately, therefore, he was given to death penalty . Sources in Beledweyne said there had been an argument between the two before the accused opened fire on the dear departed. Somali military court often carries out sentences and executions to al-Shabaab ... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord... fighters and soldiers for crimes despite condemnation from human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... groups. |
