Quote
"On July 4, 2015 the first degree court of the military sat for the punishment case against defendant Mahiye Dyayow, aged 26 and who is ex-Security Agency soldier. On 10th February 2015, he killed late Mohamed Qassim Borow. This will serve a good example to allgovernment forces, which should ensure reliable peace. This is to avoid killings and safeguard our Somali people. Any soldier who kills a person or loots property or food at the market or in refugee camps will be executed likewise."
