Somalia: Unspeakable Cruelty: Will There Be Justice for Precious Canab?

[Che -Guevara]

They say the measure of a society is how it treats its vulnerable members; if one were to measure our society by this standard, we are the lowest of the low. We have lost our humanity or are no longer abide by any moral values.

I see you posted this article, child abuse is very wrong and the criminals who do this must be punished in harshest codes of the law. However reading this article I dont see any evidence of the author actually helping baby C. Or even visiting her in hospital . The author writings seems to be based on another journalist reporting and neither that guy from whats here cared enough to atleast give a number for contacting with donations towards baby C. Medical care. Its better to help then talk the talk .Also if the step dad is in the cidanka in moqadisho the, hospital, anyone must contact the police so he can found , charged and convicted.

^Agreed.

Somalis have traditionally condoned beating up of children, sometimes severely, on the pretext of instilling discipline. It started at homes and got worse at the malcaamadda/dugsi qur'an and I swear some of those teachers were just mindless child abusers. This very unfortunate incident has roots in that culture. I hope the monster who did this is charged and convicted but I highly doubt it will happen.
