Somalia: Businesspeople Ordered to Surrender Their Arms to Islamic Courts
The Union of Islamic Courts senior leaders have today ordered the armed businesspeople and ordinary people to hand their weapons over to Islamic Courts, issuing decree concerning the ban on weapons in the capital Mogadishu.
The decree signed by Islamic Courts executive council leader Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed has warned local businesspeople and other individuals probably armed to surrender their weapons to the Courts administration.
Most of Somalia's firms' owners and businesspeople possess largest numbers of trucks mounted with anti-aircraft guns and uncountable small arms for the protection of their businesses.
The Islamic Courts have appointed three senior Islamists for the collection of the weapons. Sheik Muktar Robow Abu mansoor, Col. Mohammed Hashi Daqare and Mohammed Abdulle Gesey were the appointed.
Earlier Islamists in central provinces of the country have threatened they would punish non-Islamists caught with carrying a weapon. The law banning weapons has been introduced into the capital on Monday.
Somalia's Islamic Courts seized most central and southern Somalia, including the capital early June this year after fatal battles in which nearly one thousand people lost their lives, most of them civilians, with warlords.
