Suicide bomber kills six in Mogadishu ice-cream parlor
[Jpost] A jacket wallah went kaboom! in an ice-cream parlor in the Somali capital Mogadishu on Friday, killing six people and wounding eight, an official said.
"Ice Cream is UnIslamic!"
It was not immediately clear who was responsible for the blast, but the Islamist bad boy group al-Shabaab
...... Somalia's version of the Taliban, functioning as an arm of al-Qaeda...
frequently carries out bombings in the capital and elsewhere.

The group is allied with al Qaeda and wants to rule Somalia according to its strict interpretation of Islamic sharia law.

The Gelato Divino parlor is located near K4 Junction in the heart of Mogadishu, near the international airport.

"A suicide bomber blew up himself in the ice-cream restaurant," information ministry front man Ismail Mukhtar Omar said. "Six people died and eight others were maimed."
