HARGEISA, Somalia, July 28 (Reuters) - The government of the breakaway Somali republic of Somaliland on Saturday arrested three politicians planning to form an opposition party, in a move diplomats said could hurt its bid for sovereignty. Security forces arrested the leader of the Qaran political association, Mohamed Abdi Gaboose, and his deputies Mohamed Hashi Elmi and Jamal Aideed Ibrahim, and charged them with founding an illegal organization and creating instability. A regional court ordered the three held at Mandera prison. Somaliland permits by law only three political parties, a situation which Qaran has criticised repeatedly. It wants voter registration -- due earlier this month -- to go ahead so that it can gain the numbers it needs to be among the three legally recognised parties ahead of presidential elections due on April 15. All three existing parties, including that of President Dahir Rayale Kahin, oppose that. "We strongly condemn the arrest of the leaders of the political organization. We strongly urge that they immediately be released," said Mohamed Saed Hirsi, chair of the Somaliland Lawyers' Association. The government had no immediate comment. FUNDS AT RISK Diplomats say the arrests may put at risk funds which the government hoped to get for local elections due later this year. "This would obviously jeopardise the democratic process the international community is willing to support," said a Nairobi-based diplomat who declined to be named. "By doing so, Somaliland is probably jeopardising its efforts to gain recognition for its sovereignty." Somaliland, in the northwestern corner of Somalia bordering Ethiopia, broke away from the rest of the country in 1991, when warlords overthrew last national president Mohamed Siad Barre. Since then, the former British Somaliland has pushed for sovereignty on the grounds that it was separate for a few days after independence in 1960 until it joined the former Italian colony of Somalia to form the modern state. The African Union and its predecessor body have generally preferred to keep nations within the colonial borders at independence to discourage a flood of separatist movements. Somaliland has won some in the international community to its side, but is still struggling to gain critical mass. It refuses to have anything to do with the interim government in the rest of Somalia, which also claims Somaliland.

MOGADISHU, July 28 (Reuters) - Women decked out in brightly coloured gowns, gold jewellery and elaborate hairstyles dance with men to the slow tunes of Somali love songs. A pianist, guitarist and female singer entertain the crowd packed into a small, stuffy hall for a wedding reception. Such a scene would have been unthinkable in Mogadishu just months ago when a hardline Muslim movement ruled the seaside capital and much of southern Somalia, imposing sharia law and shutting down many forms of entertainment seen as un-Islamic. But business is back after the interim government, with Ethiopian military help, in January ejected the Islamists and their strict form of Islam. Revelling in their new freedom, excited guests cheer and shower the singer with scarves and a confetti of Somali money. "I'm very happy," wedding planner Muna Omar said as the reception at a former military compound starts to wind down. "During the Islamic reign we would never dare organise such a party," she said. "They considered it unlawful." When the Somali Islamic Courts Council was in charge last year, they banned wedding parties, shut video halls screening foreign films and World Cup football matches, outlawed a hugely popular narcotic, khat, and harassed men's barbers. They also ordered women to wear the hijab, an outfit covering the body and head. At first, many residents praised them for bringing relative stability to much of a country that had become a byword for anarchy since dictator Mohamed Siad Barre was ousted in 1991. But they were abhorred by others for imposing restrictions on a Muslim society that is traditionally moderate and they drew unfavourable comparisons to the Taliban movement in Afghanistan. GOWNS AND MAKE-UP One guest taking a break from dancing recalls how he was at a secret party in Mogadishu last year that the Islamists heard of and decided to break up. "We invited a few guests and the music was on low volume. I don't know who tipped off Islamist troops, but they stormed in and disrupted the party," he said. "They flogged and chased away guests. I was so shocked." Then he returns to the heaving dance floor, a group of young men looking on with grins, clapping his every twist and turn. Mogadishu remains one of the world's most dangerous cities, and remnants of the Islamist movement are blamed for almost daily insurgent strikes targeting interim government troops, Ethiopian patrols and African Union peacekeepers from Uganda. A major peace conference under way in the north of the city has been attacked with volleys of mortar shells -- which missed and crashed down onto residential streets nearby. But many were relieved to see the back of the Islamists, especially the Somalis whose livelihoods they choked off. Deqo Afrah, another Mogadishu-based party planner, says business is booming again. She charges about $200 for most weddings, which includes applying the henna, the red dye used to decorate the bride's skin. "I organise at least two or three weddings per week," she said. "I am very busy, unlike during the Islamic Courts' rule. People can now party freely. It is good for business." Standing nearby wearing heavy make-up and a flowing semi-transparent gown, her fellow planner Omar heartily agrees. "Nobody had the guts to dress like this," she said with a laugh. "We were unhappy and bored. I hope the Islamic Courts do not hear me and come for my head!"

looooooooooooooooool ,, is that widhwidh or it is my eyes ?? A big change i say ,,,, i still don't trust them ,, may be the ministers are from the webmaster's sub-clan Good development indeed ..............

Seems you didn't read the post sxb. Juje, the somali shilling is another foreign currency, we don't want some people to use it as the official currency. Like and dislike is not in my dictionery since it is a foreign currency.

Sammurai and Xargaga, Dr. Gaboose is a well respected doctor in his field and ppl are in need of his assistance ,, imagine how many are now sick and need his treatment while he is running after the dirty political games ?? he should respect his profession and work for the people ,, everybody knows politics is a dirty and this is what he will gain, to be in jail or to be crazy for campaigning ,,,,,,,, Mohamed Hashi is a very good and telented man when it comes to the management but he has a problem. There are many ways he can make a change but this time he is absolutely wrong. Now speaking of their arrest, let's not jump just like that and analyse the situation. Here is the summary: 1- They announced the party in April and immediately the government reacted. 2- The government issued an statement saying it is illegal to have a fourth party in the country. 3- Even if other parties are required for the municipality elections, they did not wait for the appointment of the electoral committee and the green signal of the government. 4- They publicly rejected the governments statement and went to start their own campaign just like that. 5- The government issued a warning against their activities but they insister to go ahead with their campaign refusing all the possible mediations from the government's side. 6- Their arrest did not come with an order from the president, the court ordered the police to arrest them which is a legal process when the government want to arrest someone. I'm not applauding President Rayaale although he is my president ,, but let's just jump with our usual excitememt and shout out without consideration. I don't think they will stay too long in the jail but i believe it is a lesson to whoever wants to take the same path. We have an elected government and constitution ,, let's respect that and forget about the chaos we passed many years ago.

Ta ila seexata hadaan idhaahdo kawarma ??

Gabadhayda is just FINE ,,,,,,,,,, you don't need to look for another expression once you use that ///////////
