They weren't pardoned according to JB, they were swapped for prisoners.....

The point is; members of this hostage-taking cartel were apprehended by the SL Navy when they entered our waters. Released or swapped, they're your problem now.

No No, you are mistaken or be reckless with the truth. These men were never apprehended by your "navy", they were handed over to your authorties after Foreign forces captured them, they were then put on trial and after a week were sent to jail.

 

Do you think you guys are capable of locating a few men, when you cannot even find 300 at sea?

^^ Read about it here >>> “The pirates hijacked five trucks with nine people onboard and took them to their base in Garaad. They are demanding the release of their colleagues arrested recently by the Somaliland security forces,” Abdullahi Mohamed, a security official in Galkayo, said by phone.

FYI, the said minister is not from Nugaal, he is even not one of the SSDF clans. He represetents the state and engaged with these last remaining strong hold of pirate bases in Puntland i.e. Gara'ad. The pirates have long moved away and run off from Eyl, even there is small number in Ga'arad, most of the pirates that operated in Puntland have moved to and joined the Harardhere group other have ceased their activities like Mr. Boyax who once interviewed by the CNN but now is living in Garowe as good citizen.

Thank you very much for your info. Everyone now knows it's not about Clans but Cartels. Boyah and Faroole are now good law-abiding citizens. Soo maaha?

 

 

PS Good night boys, thanks for the laugh.

^^^Ayoub thanks for promoting this story of how our brave Minister is dealing with these pirates at great risk to himself.

 

While secessionist hide behind bushes and Abi Iley, Puntland cleans up Al Shabaab cells, executes their handy men and is addressing piracy.

 

In the NW they are still waiting for the Queen of Englands intervention.

[Thankful]

Again you are being reckless with the truth, these men were never captured by your forces, they were captured by international flotilla.

 

If you see the link I posted to you from your own site it states that on February 14, 2010 your authorties convicted the men that EU forces gave then....and the truck drivers were taken on February 26 according to your thread you just providedl.

 

Nice try though

SOMALILAND: Somali pirates get 15-year sentences – officials

 

BERBERA (Somalilandpress) —

A court in Somalia handed out 15-year prison sentences

to 11 pirates on Sunday, the presiding judge said.

 

Prosecutors at the court in Berbera, in the breakaway northern state of Somaliland, brought a number of charges against the men, including piracy and attempted armed kidnapping.

 

They showed the court photos obtained from NATO naval forces showing the pirates when they were arrested last December.

 

“The trial, which lasted a week,

was finally concluded today after the evidence brought before the court showed that the eleven were involved in piracy and hijacking. The court finally announced its verdict — a jail term of 15 years each”, Osman Ibrahim Dahir, the presiding judge, told AFP by phone from Berbera.

 

The pirates were detained last December after they attacked an international naval force ship mistaking it for a commercial ship off the Somali coast.

Heavily armed pirates blockaded the main road to the town, refusing the minister and his convoy to enter the city. According to local residents there was intense gun battle that ensued the blockade by the pirates.

 

The minister and his convoy were accompanied by at least 7 battle wagons and dozens of armed guards. The minister and his forces were forced to retreat, eyewitnesses say.

 

The minister was again ambushed in the town of Jariban 60km west of Gara’ad. At least 4 local people were wounded in the fighting, two of the Minister’s bodyguards were also killed in the clashes.

Later, the minister and his guards surrendered to the pirates after they were encircled in the village of Sallah in Mudug region.

The Puntland government has confirmed the clashes, however no one was able to elaborate on the whereabouts of the captured minister and his guards.

 

Ali Yusuf Hosh, the deputy minister of interior blamed pirates from Puntland and southern Somalia for ambushing the minister and his delegation.

The Pirates in Gar'ad and Eyl are of the immediate clan members of Faroole and his main financiers of the election campaigns.

 

It took only the spirit of the Elders' recognized position and their traditional skills of negotiation that the minister got released.
