American Counter-Terrorism Experts Train Somaliland Intelligence

[Jacaylbaro]

About a dozen members of Somaliland’s intelligence services are said to have received training from American Counter-Terrorism experts.

 

There were no official reports from the government, but reliable sources have said that the training included crime-fighting techniques such as how to prevent and foil terrorism. The training started last week at Mansoor Hotel in Berbera.

 

Somaliland has close cooperation ties with both Great Britain and the United States on anti-terrorism policies.

 

In the past, Britain and the US have provided Somaliland with equipment and transportation vehicles to combat terrorism in the region. But this is the first time that this type of training takes place in Berbera.

 

The training is scheduled to last a week.
