Gunmen kill a trader in Mogadishu amidst rise in attacks
2022-09-27
[ShabelleMedia] Unknown button men have murdered a trader in Mogadishu, the Somali capital in the latest series of assassinations in the seaside city in the past months.

A witness confirmed that two assailants with pistols rubbed out Dahir Jugle, a young man who used to run a shop in Wadajir district. It’s unclear the motive behind the killing.

The culprits expeditiously departed at a goodly pace before the security forces arrived, according to the witness.

The slain businessman is said to be hailing from Adado city in central Somalia, where an offensive against al-Shabaab

is underway.

Mogadishu has seen increasing attacks since the election of current president Hassan Sheikh, who pledged Somalia at peace with itself and the world.
