Jacaylbaro Posted March 28, 2009 Bosaaso, 28 March 2009 (Somalilandpress) — Heavy gun fire could be heard in the town of Bosaaso in the semi-autonomous region of Puntland in north-eastern Somalia, on Friday night as unknown militant groups battle Puntland Intelligence Service (PIS). Unconfirmed reports said that armed men threw hand grenades inside the PIS premises located in the Lanta Hawada district of Bosaaso before opening fire from small arms. It is not clear the number of casualties or damages at this stage, as it is too early for our reporters to visit the area. Some reports suggest that the attack is in connection to a recent arrest of a well known cleric after he returned from a visit to the port of Kismayo, an Al Shabab strong hold. It was just few hours ago that another group attacked the town of Garowe with hand grenade killing one person and wounding five others (see Somalia: Huge Explosion in Garowe).

Thankful Posted March 28, 2009 The city must be flooded with police and military then put under a curfew, maybe ban vehicles after a certain time. More checkpoints and searches. If these criminals will do this because of an arrest they will continue to do it everytime they want to. These scavengers who attack at night need to be rounded up.
