Atleast Eighteen al-Shabab militants were executed on Sunday in Galkayo town of Mudug, the Puntland State of Somalia, after being sentenced to death earlier by the court.
Chairperson of Puntland state court Mohamud Abdi Mohamed said their court proceedings followed through different stages before the execution.
“Puntland State Court of Armed Forces executed 18 al-Shabab militants this morning. These convicts were all behind the killings of many of our important people here. The court took the right action against them,” Mohamed said.
Al-Shabab militants termed the execution as a massacre of innocent civilians by the Puntland state.
