Mogadishu Family Seeks Justice over Murder of Loved One by Security Officer

A Mogadishu family seems justice over the murder of their kin by members of the country’s security forces.

The family of the man identified as Abubakar says their son, who worked as a mason, was not only tortured but also killed by the security agents in the nation’s capital.

Their situation is worsened by the fact that the mortuary where his body lies now requires $700 from them for services rendered thus far.

The family says they lack the wherewithal to offset the mortuary bill.

Consequently, they seek justice for the deceased as well as financial assistance to lay him to rest.
