Sheikh Khadar, Al Shabaab’s Eldher district commissioner, and two other officials were taken into custody following search operations in the village of Masagawaa.

The officials were accused of stealing 300 million Somali shillings (US$9,677) which is said to have been intended to aid drought-affected Somalis in central Somalia.

No comments about the incident were immediately available from Al Shabaab’s administration in the region.

The event comes as many regions in southern and central Somalia have been hit by severe droughts after a shortage of rain for more three years.

Al Shabaab has banned more than 20 aid agencies from operating in south-central Somalia.

From 2000 till today the world had spent 100s of millions of dollars on Somali transitional government and 100s of never fulfilled $$$ contracts have have been signed by the TFG officials. Nobody has even been arrested for stealing even though most if not all that money went to private pockets, somalis and non somalis alike. Even today, Government officials are divided over suspected missing money from Mogadishu seaport, national bank and Mogadishu city authority.

Shababs demonstrated their ability to deal with crooks in their midst.

Well done

True Its a shame that our enemies show better discipline then our leaders

This is news is propoganda, al-shabaab are the biggest thieves in Somalia, stealing money from poor people, raising tax, increasing housing prices, buring shops, they are nothing bad a cheating scums that live on the poor people of Somalia.

What tax? Don't lie to make a point. Roadblock thiefs (TFG) do that.

Coeus, you are one very intelligent guy! A lot of guys would accuse me of being pro-shabab just because I stated some facts about them.

Nobody will accuse you of that bro

What tax? Don't lie to make a point. Roadblock thiefs (TFG) do that.

Farming tax in Shabelle, Gedo and Jubooyinka, Shops owned by poor people are taxed, BM cars taxed. Regarding roadblock its for cutting cars going through specific roads, that go to government controlled areas and they don't tax any1!!!


Khwaarij will be killed and they will be doom in this life and next life!!!!!!!!!!!!!
