  • The Kismayo Bubble - Justice and Security in Jubbaland
    CONFLICT RESEARCH PROGRAMME Research at LSE Conflict Research Programme Research Memo 26 March 2021 The Kismayo Bubble - Justice and Security in Jubbaland Nisar Majid and Khalif Abdirahman Overview The absence of a credible and functional government, in Somalia, since the late 1980s has been felt particularly strongly in the arena of the rule of law. Under President Siad Barre, the judicial system was resented for being corrupt, politically manipulated and for rejecting Islamic precepts, and many welcomed its demise. It was perhaps inevitable that in the absence of a system of state courts that Islamic law and courts would emerge. As Muslims, Somalis were able to call upon a well-formed body of jurisprudence and practice that enjoyed social legitimacy and historically validated practices, to establish courts. Islamic law has a particular advantage in this regard in that it encompasses a penal code, a civil code, and commercial and tax codes. All of these are essential for the conduct of everyday life. Recent analyses of the justice and security sector have highlighted its politicisation and, particularly in Mogadishu, a political economy centred around clan-based mobilization and conflict, ideological divisions between supporters of different versions of Islamic and secular law as well as rent seeking behaviour. At a practical level, although some significant developments are noticeable, government courts remain subject to high levels of corruption and manipulation, are slow, limited by poor security and a lack of enforcement capacity. The persistence of Al Shabaab as a credible actor in the provision of justice sits in stark contrast to that of the Government.

    Inter-cluster Rapid Assessment Report IDPs in Afmadow town, Lower Juba region 17-23 July, 2016 Background Afmadow town which is located 157 km from Dhobley and 120km from Kismayo sea port city has been experiencing man- made and natural disasters including drought, water problems, water borne diseases, IDP influx from Middle Juba and other locations as a result of insecurity, floods and the search for humanitarian assistance. Afmadow town was recovered from “Al Shabaab by AMISOM/SNA on June, 2012. At the beginning of June 2016, the Jubba River broke its banks and floods affected an estimated 5,000 households (30,000people) in 45 villages in Bu’ale and Jilib districts mostly along the river including farmlands according to local elders.. As the result an estimated 800 IDPs households ( 4,800 people) mainly of Somali Bantu origin arrived in Afmadow resulting in an increase in number of IDPs by 64 per cent in the town to a total of 7,900 people. Food, WASH, Shelter/NFIs, improved nutrition and health services remain the key priority needs. From 17-23 July, with OCHA in the lead, humanitarian partners including WFP, IOM,WASDA, ARC, Adeso and WRRS and the Food Security and Livelihoods, Health, Education, and WASH cluster focal points, conducted a rapid assessment in Afmadow town to better understand the humanitarian situation of the IDPs and refugee returnees from Kenya and identify their immediate needs. General observations According to the local authority, the population of Afmadow town is estimated at 14,750 households (89,000 people) According to the local administration and IDPs leadership nearly 70-80 per cent of new arrivals of IDPs are women and children.

  • Somalia: Al-Shabaab – It Will Be a Long War
    Policy Briefing Africa Briefing N°99 Nairobi/Brussels, 26 June 2014 Somalia: Al-Shabaab – It Will Be a Long War I. Overview Despite the recent military surge against Somalia’s armed Islamist extremist and self- declared al-Qaeda affiliate, Al-Shabaab, its conclusive “defeat” remains elusive. The most likely scenario – already in evidence – is that its armed units will retreat to small- er, remote and rural enclaves, exploiting entrenched and ever-changing clan-based competition; at the same time, other groups of radicalised and well-trained individ- uals will continue to carry out assassinations and terrorist attacks in urban areas, in- cluding increasingly in neighbouring countries, especially Kenya. The long connec- tion between Al-Shabaab’s current leadership and al-Qaeda is likely to strengthen. A critical breakthrough in the fight against the group cannot, therefore, be achieved by force of arms, even less so when it is foreign militaries, not the Somali National Army (SNA), that are in the lead. A more politically-focused approach is required. Even as its territory is squeezed in the medium term, Al-Shabaab will continue to control both money and minds. It has the advantage of at least three decades of Salafi-Wahhabi proselytisation (daawa) in Somalia; social conservatism is already strongly entrenched – including in Somaliland and among Somali minorities in neigh- bouring states – giving it deep reservoirs of fiscal and ideological support, even with- out the intimidation it routinely employs. An additional factor is the group’s proven ability to adapt, militarily and politically – flexibility that is assisted by its leadership’s freedom from direct accountability to any single constituency.

  • Refugee Status Appeals Authority New Zealand
    REFUGEE STATUS APPEALS AUTHORITY NEW ZEALAND REFUGEE APPEAL NO 76551 AT AUCKLAND Before: B L Burson (Member) Counsel for the Appellant: D Ryken Appearing for the Department of Labour: No Appearance Dates of Hearing: 28 & 29 July 2010 Date of Decision: 21 September 2010 DECISION INTRODUCTION [1] This is an appeal against the decision of a refugee status officer of the Refugee Status Branch (RSB) of the Department of Labour (DOL) declining the grant of refugee status to the appellant, a national of Somalia who has spent a number of years in South Africa as a recognised Convention refugee. [2] This is the second time the appellant has appeared before the Authority. He originally arrived in New Zealand in June 2008 and lodged an application for refugee status. He was interviewed by the RSB in respect of that claim on 31 July and 1 August 2008. By decision dated 21 November 2008 the RSB declined the appellant’s claim on the basis that having been recognised as a refugee in South Africa the appellant was entitled to the protection of that country. The appellant duly appealed to the Authority. By decision dated 4 August 2009 the Authority dismissed the appellant’s appeal. [3] On 12 October 2009, the appellant lodged proceedings by way of judicial review in the High Court. By decision dated 4 June 2010 the High Court quashed the decision of the Authority. Although the High Court was satisfied the Authority 2 had not committed any reviewable error itself, the appellant’s previous representative had failed to ensure that a letter from a witness confirming the appellant’s clan origins was not placed before the Authority and the High Court reached the view that the Authority should, as a matter of fairness, re-assess the appellant’s claim having regard to this evidence.

  • Somalia: Researched and Compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on 5 July 2010
    Somalia: Researched and compiled by the Refugee Documentation Centre of Ireland on 5 July 2010 Information required on the Somali clans/tribes Marehan and Marjeteen, particularly their relations with the Bajuni Noufail Are the Bajuni Noufail being discriminated against by the other two clans? Information on the Somali clans/tribes Marehan and Marjeteen and their relations with the Bajuni was scarce among the sources consulted by the Refugee Documentation Centre within time constraints. Dr Joakim Gundel is quoted in an Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation (ACCORD) COI Workshop as follows: “The Darood are commonly divided into three major groups referred to as Ogaden, Marehan, and Harti. The Harti are composed of the Majerteen who now are found in Puntland mainly, and the Dulbahante and Warsangeli who mainly live within the borders of Somaliland. Puntland almost entirely overlaps with the Majerteen clan family.14 The Marehan inhabit South-Central Somalia, where they are dominant in Gedo region.” (Austrian Centre for Country of Origin and Asylum Research and Documentation (ACCORD) (15 May 2009) Clans in Somalia - Report on a Lecture by Joakim Gundel, COI Workshop Vienna, p. 12) A document from the Danish Refugee Council/Novib-Oxfam states: “Luuq, which is located in the Southern region of Gedo, shares much of the history of the Raxanweyn and the Geledi Sultanate as their Gasargude Sultanate was closely linked with the Geledi. Here too, you find that nomadic clans have settled and mixed with the sedentary people, however here the nomadic element was primarily represented by the Marehan from the Darood clan family.
