Press Release: 7/11 Crime Still Awaits Justice

 

Five months have passed since July 11, 2009 when four innocent civilians from Awdal were kidnapped, tortured, murdered and their bodies mutilated. The victims were travelling on the main road between Dilla and Kalabaydh in order to carry out their routine businesses.

This was indeed a cowardly act perpetuated by well known criminals!
