Sentence of death

The 55-year-old Norwegian citizen has been imprisoned in Somaliland since April 4 last year. Documents from the local district court and the appellate court show that the murder weapon is a so-called defense spray, bought at a Clas Ohlson store in Oslo.

In Norway, the spray is considered safe.

Saad Jirde was sentenced to death twice by gunshot.

Lawyer Farid Bouras will try to visit the Norwegian sentenced to death at the hospital in Hargeisa as soon as possible.
