  • Country Information and Guidance Somalia Preface
    Country Information and Guidance Somalia Preface This document provides guidance to Home Office decision makers on handling claims made by nationals/residents of - as well as country of origin information (COI) about - Somalia. This includes whether claims are likely to justify the granting of asylum, humanitarian protection or discretionary leave and whether - in the event of a claim being refused - it is likely to be certifiable as ‗clearly unfounded‘ under s94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002. Decision makers must consider claims on an individual basis, taking into account the case specific facts and all relevant evidence, including: the guidance contained with this document; the available COI; any applicable caselaw; and the Home Office casework guidance in relation to relevant policies. Within this instruction, links to specific guidance are those on the Home Office‘s internal system. Public versions of these documents are available at https://www.gov.uk/immigration- operational-guidance/asylum-policy. Country Information The COI within this document has been compiled from a wide range of external information sources (usually) published in English. Consideration has been given to the relevance, reliability, accuracy, objectivity, currency, transparency and traceability of the information and wherever possible attempts have been made to corroborate the information used across independent sources, to ensure accuracy. All sources cited have been referenced in footnotes. It has been researched and presented with reference to the Common EU [European Union] Guidelines for Processing Country of Origin Information (COI), dated April 2008, and the European Asylum Support Office‘s research guidelines, Country of Origin Information report methodology, dated July 2012.

  • Figure 4: Logbook Updated Accordingly. 3. the SEMG Identified Two Areas Where the Procedure Could Be Improved: (A) Indication
    S/2017/924 Figure 4: Logbook updated accordingly. 3. The SEMG identified two areas where the procedure could be improved: (a) Indication of the precise amount of ammunition required: Many distribution orders noted only the number of boxes (sanduuq in Somali) instead of the exact number of rounds (xabo in Somali) distributed. To better monitor the distribution of ammunition, the exact amount of ammunition should be indicated on the distribution documents. (b) Accurate completion of the logbook: In some cases, distributed ammunition was not indicated on the same line of the logbook that had recorded its receipt. Figure 5: Weapon Logbook with inadequately completed fields for distribution of PKM ammunition. 120/161 17 17136 S/2017/924 Weapons distribution procedures 4. The Group was given access to the weapons logbooks which included records of the receipt of weapons supplied by the Arab Republic of Egypt in August 2016.41 The logbooks showed accurate registration of all six 9mm Tokarev pistols and 58 AK-47s received in the shipment. However, three AK-47s listed in the advance delivery notification had not been registered in the logbook. 5. The SEMG also reviewed a logbook dedicated to RPG-7s, containing only two entries. Key fields had been left unfilled in the two entries, such as the date of arrival, the shipment of origin, the CDF distribution order reference, the original serial number, and the SNA marking numbers. Figure 6: RPG logbook entries. __________________ 41 Advance delivery notification was sent to the Committee on 22 July 2016 (S/AC.29/2016/NOTE.38). No post-delivery confirmation was sent to the Committee.

Eight policemen and 28 Taliban fighters died in the fighting that continued until 21 July 2014. On 21 July 2014 a suicide bomber detonated his explosive-laden car next to a police convoy in the southern province of Helmand, killing at least one civilian and one policeman and wounding about 15 people. In a separate roadside bombing three soldiers were killed. On 22 July 2014 another suicide bombing happened in Kabul claiming the lives of four foreigners and wounding several people.

Three Nepalese guards were among the victims. On 24 July 2014 a suicide bomber blew himself up on a market in Khwaja Ghar (capital of the district of the same name in the north-eastern Afghan province of Takhar).
