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. -
