  • Somaliland Assistance Bulletin
    Somaliland Assistance Bulletin 1 – 30 November 2005 HUMANITARIAN SITUATION Security & Access The overall security situation in Somaliland remained stable. A verdict was issued on the trail case of the 10 arrested suspects of the killings of four humanitarian workers occurring in 2003 and 2004. The case originally started in March 2005. According to the regional court in Hargeisa, 8 men were found guilty of "terrorism" and were sentenced to death. Following the killing of the 4 expatriate humanitarian workers, the UN in collaboration with the national authorities established a Special Protection Unit (SPU) initially to provide protection for humanitarian workers of UN & international NGOs, subsequently extended to the rest of the community. Since then no further incidents were reported. A deadly mine accident occurred in Burao on 16 November 2005 where a vehicle diverted from the main road towards a roadside short cut. Three out of a total of seven passengers were reported dead, including one UN staff member. Somaliland Mine Action Center (SMAC), supported by UNDP, coordinates mine action activities, since late 1999, an approximate area of around 115 million square meters has been cleared.

  • Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS
    Issued January 14 2004 HIGHLIGHTS · Sool Plateau Update : Rains of low intensity and limited spatial coverage fell in the first week of December but did little to alleviate the current humanitarian crisis in Sool Plateau. Nutritional status surveys reflect the deteriorating food security situation of residents. An acute malnutrition rate of 18.9% (W/H<2 z-score or oedema) was found during the first round of Sool Plateau sentinel site surveil- lance exercise in November/December 2003. A UNICEF led mission in mid-December 2003 also recorded an equally high malnutri- tion rate in Sool Plateau of Sanaag (4,841 children screened). The rate was significantly higher in Sool Plateau of Sool Region (2,049 children were screened). Civil insecurity in the area is now threatening to disrupt humanitarian relief operations in the region. · Drought in Hawd of Todgheer : An inter-agency rapid assessment led by the FSAU found that the poor and lower levles of the middle wealth pastoral group are facing a high risk of food shortage, largely as a result of poor Gu 2003 and failed Deyr 2003 rains. Affected households will need to be closely monitored during the harsh, dry Jilaal season. For more information on the drought stricken region, see page 2. · Galgadud Region : UN-OCHA Somalia and FSAU carried out a low level mission to Galagdud (13-20 December 2003) to districts where people had been displaced following civil insecurity in the region. This diplacement, combined with a two month delay in the onset of the Deyr rains has undermined agricultural and livestock activities, increasing the risk of food insecurity.

  • Punishment on Stage
    Punishment on Stage -Application of Islamic Criminal Law by Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen- Michael Skjelderup Master’s Degree Thesis in History of Religion (60sp) Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages The Faculty of Humanities University of Oslo Autumn 2011 © Michael Skjelderup Autumn 2011 Punishment on Stage: Application of Islamic Criminal Law by Harakat al-Shabaab al- Mujahideen Michael Skjelderup http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo II Executive summary Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen, usually referred to as al-Shabaab (“the youth”), is mostly known as a Somali terrorist group. But since the end of 2008 it has functioned as a state power in large parts of Southern and Central Somalia. In this study I sketch out the structure and function of the legal system of the group. Over the last three years they have developed an administrative structure and a legal system which is unprecedented in the Somali conflict, which has lasted for more than 20 years. In order to establish law and order in their territories al-Shabaab has applied their own version of sharī’a and issued strict religiously inspired decrees. The present study is based on information acquired through interviews with Somali refugees in Nairobi who have direct experiences with al-Shabaab’s judicial practice. It reveals that al-Shabaab’s application of criminal law follows the inherent logic of classical Islamic legal doctrines on several points. However, the al-Shabaab courts tend to overlook many of the strict requirements regarding evidence and procedure which was outlined by the medieval Muslim scholars in order to humanize Islamic law.

  • Somalia S 2004 804.Pdf
    United Nations S/2004/804 Security Council Distr.: General 8 October 2004 Original: English Report of the Secretary-General on the situation in Somalia I. Introduction 1. The present report is submitted pursuant to the statement of the President of the Security Council of 31 October 2001 (S/PRST/2001/30). The report provides an update on developments in and related to Somalia since my last report of 9 June 2004 (S/2004/469). The main focus of the report is the progress achieved at the Somali National Reconciliation Conference at Mbagathi, Somalia, under the auspices of the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD), with Kenya as Chairman. The report also provides an update on developments inside Somalia, the security situation and the humanitarian and development activities of United Nations programmes and agencies. II. Somali National Reconciliation Conference 2. At the end of June 2004, owing to controversies regarding the method of selection of members of the transitional federal parliament, many Somali leaders absented themselves from the Somali National Reconciliation Conference. However, concerted efforts by the member States of IGAD, especially their Ministers for Foreign Affairs, led to a gradual return of those leaders to the Conference in July. The Ministers also called for the early arrival of traditional leaders at the Conference site and for Somali political leaders to cooperate in the process of selecting the members of parliament. They warned that absent leaders would not be allowed to hold the peace process hostage and that punitive measures would be taken against those obstructing its completion. 3. Each Somali clan (Hawiye, Darod, Digil and Mirifle, Dir and the “Allied” clans) was requested to submit a list of names to form the Somali National Arbitration Committee and the collective leadership of the Conference, which is called the Presidium.
