Gunmen Kill A Somali Elder In Galkayo Town
|
 [RADIOSHABELLE] Unknown button men have shot and killed a tribal elder in central Somalia on Wednesday night, police and witnesses said.
The elder, Abdullahi Abdirahman was bumped off by assailants armed with pistols in the troubled southern Galkayo town, the regional capital of Mudug.
The killers managed to escape the scene before the arrival of the local security forces. No group has yet grabbed credit for the apparent liquidation.
The town which straddles the border between Galmudug
...a semiautonomous region in central Somalia, bordering Puntland on the north. Galmudug is not trying to obtain international recognition as a separate nation, but rather considers itself autonomous within the larger Somali federalism, for what that's worth...
and Puntland
...a region in northeastern Somalia, centered on Garowe in the Nugaal province. Its leaders declared the territory an autonomous state in 1998. Puntland and the equally autonomous Somaliland seem to have avoided the clan rivalries and warlordism that have typified the rest of Somalia, which puts both places high on the list for Islamic subversion...
has been the scene of rising killings and frequent rape in the past few months.
