Miskiin-Macruuf-Aqiyaar Posted December 27, 2007 2-POLICEMAN SLAYS SOMALI PRESIDENT; Assassin Seized After Shot Kills Shermarke Instantly -- Curfew in Mogadiscio President of Somalia Is Slain; Policeman Seized as Assassin This guy indirectly and probably single-handedly changed the Soomaali history forever. If he only knew that one gun trigger he fired would change the fate of millions of his fellow countrymen present and in the future, I think he would have second thoughts. He is our own version of Gavrilo Princip, whose shot killed the Austro-Hungarian prince in 1914. Does anyone even know his name? We only know he was sentenced to death and was shot a few days after Kacaanka. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
