Court Reaffirms Decision to Sentence ISIS Terrorists from Puntland to Death

A Somali court has reaffirmed the decision to sentence ISIS terrorists arrested in Puntland to death.

The four ISIS terrorists had appealed the initial sentence at Somalia’s Appeals Court in the regional state of Puntland.

The extremists sentenced to death are Ayub Omar Shire, Jama Adan Abdirahman Tushbahlay, Mohamud Abshir Musa, and Abdullahi Salaad Boss Mahoonge.

On August 14, the Eastern Court of Appeal in Puntland reaffirmed the decision to sentence the four to death.

The prosecution proved that the four men had been responsible for a series of explosions and murders in Bosaso.
