Somali Justice vs. Western Justice

[AbdiWahab252]

Every time there is a crime in the Somali community, the parties are invited to attend a Somali gogool to resolve the issue instead of taking it to the Western criminal justice system.

So under what kind of criminal or civil cases should be resolved under Somali gogools and which type should be pursued under Western criminal justice system ?

civil cases yes, but for criminal cases, if you have a proper somali due proccess that entails accountability and sentencing for the said crime than go for it, if not.. it is best to allow whatever procedures that are in place to preside over the matter. otherwise you have one too many somali criminals loose in society. i remember these two ciyaal suuq Dixon boys who fought each other at a night club in Toronto, one of them stabbed the other and the kid died. the other kid fled the scene before the cops got there. bacden both somali parents of these kids baa gogal dhigteen oo waxey ku hishiiyeen in midkan hada nool oo gacan ku deeglaha ah in wadankii loo celiyaa oo la badbaadiyaa oo waayo meeshantani prison ayuu ka gali and will be ruined..calashan waa qalaas noloshiisha oo dhan. i know they did this becasue they were both of the same qabiil and they settled this to save the criminal kid because of qabil loyalties, not considering that he ended another kid's life before they decide to save his..BULSHID..
