Suspected al-Shabab gunmen kill three business people in Mogadishu


Monday October 28, 2024

Mogadishu (HOL) — Suspected al-Shabab gunmen armed with pistols killed three young business people and wounded another at their business premises in the Yaqshiid district of Mogadishu on Monday.

The attack was reportedly linked to the victims' decision to install CCTV cameras at their business centers in compliance with government directives. Al-Shabab had previously threatened violence against anyone who adhered to this order.

Police and security forces arrived at the scene following the attack; however, they failed to apprehend the assailants responsible for the murders.

In recent days, there has been a notable increase in attacks targeting businesses in Mogadishu, particularly those that have installed CCTV cameras as mandated by the government. Dozens of young men have been killed in connection with these surveillance measures.
