Well done, I'm glad they stood up for the old man. It would be massive irony if he was the only person to ever be held accountable for all that's happened in Somalia in the past three decades.
He chose to live in a land where there is rule of justice. Samantar was a vicious man whose crimes can not be simply washed away.
The government if this story is proven to be true committed a great disservice to the Somali people. It has stood up to let a war criminal who helped speed up the collapse of the Somali state go scot free. War criminals who chose to flee and settle in countries that provide victims of their brutality legal recourse deserve to be taken to court.
Another nail in the coffin for north-south relations.
