Police launches sweep in Mogadishu after mortar attack
|
Somali police officers launched a sweep in Mogadishu following a mortar shelling around the heavily fortified presidential complex by attackers thought to be Al shabaab members.
Several suspects were detained during the operation which took place many parts of Mogadishu’s Hodon district on Friday, according to a police officer who spoke to Radio Shabelle by phone.
“Police is questioning dozens of people whom the security forces arrested on suspicion of being Al shabaab sympathizers linked to the latest attacks in Mogadishu,” said Hodon district police chief Hussein Sheikh Mohamed.
The arrests came hours after unknown assailants fired several mortar rounds towards the presidential palace in Mogadishu on Thursday night, killing at least three civilians, including a woman.
