P.I.S. Tortured and Executed 2 P.O.W from Galgala

Bosaso: Two P.O.W of the Galgala conflict had been tortured and then executed by the infamous P.I.S under the direct and arbitrary order from Puntland president Farole, according to local reports.

 

 

The two men from Western Bari region were first snatched from their long captivity, according to local sources. They were blindfolded, dragged, and brought before a Kangaroo court in Bosaso.

 

Close relatives of the victims who contacted Dhahar online released the names of the prisoners after they were murdered on the outskirts of Bosaso; they were identified as Saciid Osman a 16 year old minor and Ahmed Farah, 20. Both victims were close relatives from the maternal side, according to local sources.

 

Local reports also confirm marks of torture such as bruised and broken bones and traces of holes were identified on one of the victims’ body. This was again another disappointment, yet hardly a surprise, for the chapfallen and long-suffering masses ofSomalia. However, this is not the first time Puntland has carried out these types of torture against individuals in its captivity. Jamac Isma’il Du’ale, a prisoner from Western Bari region was also tortured and shot in the head in late July of 2010.

 

Mohamud Jama, a close relative of Sa’id Osman who contacted Dhahar-online stated, “Sa’id was a school age minor who had been kidnapped in Sugurre valley, a direct violation of human rights.”

 

A Bosaso elder was quoted to have said that the men were sentenced andimmediately executed as a direct retaliation of a previous incident, one fueled by long held clan rivalry. The judge and the top leaders of the P.I.S who carried out this latest violation of the Geneva Convention are of the Mohamoud Saleeban sub-clans of *********.

 

P.I.S claims its aim is to safeguard the security of “Puntland” though it contributed more to its internal instability. Clan rivalry has also complicated further any objectives this organization could have accomplished in its fight against what is widely known as “home-grown insurgency”. However, the current political situation points to another fact of soaring public discontent that has now reached its critical mass.

 

On October 6, three men from the town of Qardho were murdered inside a café restaurant in Dhahar, the capital of Haylan region. Their deaths were concluded by regional experts and elders from the region as tribally motivated. It was also what the conflict theorists refer to as a “spillover conflict”. This incident had almost triggered full clan warfare between the subclans of Dubeiss (**********) and *****ten in the regions of Karkaar and Haylaan as it is now raging in the Galgala district of Western Bari.

 

Puntland has been waging offensives in Western Bari since late July of 2010. According to a recently published VOA article, the offensives were inspired by clan grievances due to the ********** dominated Puntland and the Dubeys subclan fromWestern Bari. Somalia observers have previously issued their warnings against the political uncertainty of the Galgala wars around Bosaaso environs.
