Somalia: District Officer killed at Mudug region in central Somalia

Mogadishu Wednesday 24 February 2010 SMC

 Unidentified armed group has on Tuesday at exactly 6:40pm local time raided at the premises of “Golis” the leading Telecommunication Company in the semiautonomous state of Puntland at Bur Salah district in Mudug region in central Somalia and killed the deputy district commissioner of Bur Salah district Mr. Omar Mohammed.

There are contradicting words emerging from the killing of the deputy district commissioner, some say that the district officer was inside the compound when the attackers have raided at the compound of the Telecommunication while some say that the district commissioner

was by then heading to his residence which was not far from where the building of the Telecommunication Company is.

“I was a witness when the district officer was killed the very people who have attacked at the Telecommunication compound were the killers of the district officer and they have done this shortly after they have attacked the Telecommunication compound, I cannot say whether they mean it to kill the district officer deliberately because they have as well killed a student who was by then walking on the street after taking his evening tuition” said Zakariya Jamac an eyewitness who has spoken to Somaliweyn Website on Wednesday morning.  

A week a go a similar case of attacking a compound of the same Telecommunication Company has occurred within Puntland state, and the inhabitants of Bur Salah are very anxious about these attack.

The security personnel are said that they will carryout investigations pertaining to the attack.
