MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) — A militant official and a Somali resident say al-Shabab fighters have stoned to death a man for carrying out a homosexual sex act.

The resident, Yusuf Abdi, said the group buried a blindfolded man to his waist last Friday and threw stones at him until he died.

An al-Shabab official said one of its judges sentenced the man to death because he forced a 13-year-old boy to have sex with him. The al-Shabab member insisted he not be named.

Al-Shabab implements a conservative and austere brand of Islam in areas it controls.

Sheikh Ibrahim Ali, a Somali religious leader in Mogadishu, said homosexuality is controversial inside Islam. One strict reading of Islamic law, he said, is that a married man who engages in a homosexual act should be killed.

  1. If it's true and the crime was reported accurate than it's rape and it doesn't matter what's the sexual orientation of the individual is,And we as a society should rather be concern about the heinous nature of the crime. Which in my eyes the punishment levy against him it,s just appropriate.

  2. If it is true, that man deserves it. But, I doubt it is true. To me this looks like, Al-shabaab playing the so called ''the good force'', in attempt to boosts it supports. Thus, a propaganda.

    They beheaded a well known local Muslim Scholar, and now they want to release this propaganda story.

  3. Sahra,

    Rape and sexual predatory is not only rape Somalia endures. The whole Somalia is being raped day in and day out by stupid politicians, who were imposed upon the Somalia people in clannish and a corrupt selection system and I see no one complaining about them.

    At least this pedophile got what he deserved and done what he did by his choice, But what has the Somalia people done to be between this corrupt government and Al Shabaab terrorists. Oh I forgot, the Somalia people were cheering when Siad Barre and Samater were trying to exterminating the Somalilanders.

    • Dhugtame,

      what abnout Somaliland? Do you believe that Somaliland is not prone to predatory politicians, like Siilaanyo and his useless minsiters. Put your house in order first, then you can tell to others what to do. Own you mistakes, ass your weakness, arrange your ideas for the pressing issues to com, refrain from supporting failed ministers just because that they belong to your tribe. He who fails to understand his weakness or tries to hide his deficiency has no right to dictate others what to do. Do not pretend that you are smart. We know what makes you talk when writes the weaknesses of SL incumbent Administration

      • Hanad,

        At least in Somaliland we elected our government through one man, one vote and will change them through the ballet boxes if it becomes necessary. Who am I talking to? you don't even understand what I am talking about. Keep your rapers and enjoy!

  4. These people whether Alshebabe or govenment or Puntland have destroyed all the good reputation of Somali people. They are so focused on Somaliland getting it together and moving on that they became oblivious to what is going on in their homes, piracy, terrorism, pedophia, smaglig, corruption, clanism, hunger and suicide bombings. They have abondomed their culture, religion and now they have turned savages…..Watch this images of what happened in Muqdishu today,,,I am ashamed to be a Somali today

    • Tell that to your cousins in Hargeisa that are involved in all of those things. The people of Khaatumo do not want to be part of your project yet you want to force them to join the angry clan. Can you address that before you talk about the Somali Republic?

      • The people of Sool are part and parcel of people of Somaliland, if Khaatumo wants to import foreign ideology or want to be governed by group of people with special interest or they want to join the people of Muqodisho that is their choice, they can just all move to Muqodishu all together we wont stand in the way, but the idea of dismembering the Democratic State of Somaliland is not something that is going to happen except or unless the lord of the universe, Allah wills it

        If you love moqudishu so much live a good life and peace in Somaliland and wait for national referrendum for a decision whether Somalilanders want to join the Somalia once more. But remember this is not Zoomalia where every clan carves few blocks of land to create little chiefdoms

        • @xaawo
          briliantly said walal tel them the thruth by the way how old are you and are you maried

          • xaawo

            kkkkkkk good question. we would love to know especially for a somalilander gentlemen like him,

          • 1960 UNION of 2-Sovereign states had a set of foundations upon which the Union was built:

            1. 2-States joined for mutual benefit as equals…
            2. They shared a Single Capital which was Selected as Muuqdishu were every clan was equal.
            3. The political power distribution was to be along Equal platforms…
            4. The Military was equal distributed between the 2-states…
            5. The Economic development should have been distributed equally…

            – Would it also not have been an indication of equality if the Capital is from 2-state then the office of president is from a different state?

            Since 1960 the reality of the Union as witnessed has been less then mutually beneficial. Is it a mystery why the Union failed and why it continues to be an unpopular endevour?

            Are there any sincere UNIONISTS left to promote the meaning of a UNION?

            Then why is it Muqadis? JUSTICE is muqadis, FAIRNESS is muqadis, EQUALITY is muqadis… simply paying lip service to UNIONIST ideals without a sincere effort to promote the merits of a UNION will never create the environment for a Re-UNION or will it???

            Lands do not move, People move and they take what ever they can carry… Land locked communities who find themselves stuck between the butt cracks of 3-third world Africa states in the most famine stricken place on earth are most certainly unfortunate to say the least… Dadaab, Dollo Ado or perhaps the camps of Yemen might have empty plots to rehouse such people… we all should pity them and where possible make their eventual tahriib as smooth as possible.

            Where shall we donate?

        • Xaawo, walaalo if you separatists want to dismember Somalia, then surely Khaatumo can do that to to you. You hypocrite mind will only destroy you.

        • Xaawo, if you separatists chose the dismembering of Somalia, then surely Khaatumo has the right to dismember the separatists so called land. Your hypocrisy will only haunt you mate. Never will you succeed into you separatists land, Awdal and Khaatumo were the ones who favoured the union in the 60's and it is them who are against secession. They have are the ones that set the real change making policy, not you separatists who just live in your own fairytale bubble.

          • Truth we wish to save Somalia not destroy it. Problem is even you do not know what and where Somalia is?

            – Is the part that is colonized by Ethiopia?
            – Is the part that is colonized by Kenya?
            – Is the part that is colonized by Uganda?

            What is Somalia if it is not Somalia-Italia-trust territory? That gained Independence 01-Jul-1960.

            Somaliland-Republic has nothing to do with that Country and we do not wish to see it broken into fiefdoms 🙂 You already have a 100-Presidents and not a single one was ELECTED. So long as Somalia's people are their own enemy they do not need anyone else to destroy it.

            All those who wish to be part of Somalia-Road-Map-Federation are welcome to Migrate whenever they please 🙂 I mean How many people migrate to Djibouti or Ethiopia and Kenya? Same difference go where ever you wish…

            Please stop begging for permission in the future.

          • Mate it was called Italian Somaliland, and stop calling the south as a country because neither the south or the north was a country. Just because Italian and the Britain came and divided the two territories into two, doesn't make it a country. They became a country together.

          • @Buuxiye……..Continueing…………..As for the so called 100 president and non elected, do you think you had any President who was elected? Your one tribe participant election is not called

  6. Brilliant job, all paedophiles must be killed wherever they are, regardless of their sex, religion or race

  17. The Khatumo Forum for Unity, Peace and Development, hailing from Somalia’s northern regions of Sool, Sanaag and Cayn (SSC), presents its compliments to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and expresses its appreciation for his Report on Somalia (S/2013/69) of January 2013.

    • Khatamoseeg, exist, only in your mind and in the mind of those who are insane.It does not exist today, it will not exist tomorrow and it will never exist forever.

    • Tellmethruth,

      I know where you coming my friend. You are one of those mindless people emotionally and materially used by Ali Khalif and cohorts. Two clarifications for you: Talking about the SSc, where is the guy who created that name? isn't he in Hargeisa ? Where is Ali Khalif? in Mogadishu after failing to get the speaker position in the fake Mogadishu. Did he come back to Talex since he accomplished his mission? not at all.

      How many young people have you lost in your terrorist war against Somaliland? did you loose more land? of course you did. How much money did the single mothers in Europe and Canada spent on this fruitless project? millions.

      Is it time for you to give up? well the smart people are already out and live in peace with their fellow compatriots and relatives in Somaliland.

      Does the IC know what Khatumo represents? of course they know that its based on hoax. Because Sool, Sanaag and Cayn are not solely inhabited by Dhulos, but the majority of these districts are inhabited by Isaaq.

      Think you should up grade your knowledge of Somaliland territory and wake up from your misleading dream.

      • lol, maybe you should stop being in denial and except that not every is on board your crazy train.

        • lol, no one is reading your propaganda websites but few handful sick-minded warmongering losers. That is why you are cutting and pasting them here. Cheap move!

    • This is a good news i have heard lately. Hell with those enemies of Somaliland.Long live Somaliland and its people.

  19. A news just in from Mogadishu states the raped boy story is hoax that was developed and spread by the so-called government in order to get sympathy from the western gay community and this just a very desperate move.

    This Mafia team are at dead end now and are soliciting help from everywhere.

    • I keep telling people we get major problem worse than previous administration,And Somalia can not afford another unproductive four more years.Specially now the whole wold is ready to help us. This is why Ethiopia is threatening to pull out and we know how ready our forces are.Unbelievable!

    • Dhugtame, you pathetic liar. Go and kill yourself, since you have no ethics whatsoever. Willing to lie just to demonize the Government, how sad.

      • Truth10,

        Have no response for little kid brain washed by his mentally unfit single mother.

        • Typical separatists, always resorting into insulting moms. My mom is not single mom, but for you to insult her, shows how pathetic you are you mentally handicap psychopath. I won't insult your mom, but isha Allah punish you and Hirsi severely for insulting moms.

  20. The people talking abou an individual person who sexually abused a minor and I believe. He should be indicted and brought in to the justice but the problem is that There is no justice in Mogadishu and it never will be one.
    There are some sick audiance who are changing the subject and talking about someirhibg does not deserve to exist – Khatumo – this is a name rather than a political apponent.
    There are a few sick people who believe a jin castles Khatumo but they are lacking treatment –
    Dhulbahante moved out of Sool in 1925 to Puntland and they had been raoed, killed systematically by Majeerten and a few numbers returned to Sool. The British Govemernt at the time asked Dulbhante to sign a tenant agreeinent. Between Gudabirsey, Isaaq and Dhulbahante and the agreeinent stipulated the roles and responsibilities of all parts which was that Dhulbahante was meant to stay in Sool temporarily as long as they will not be retuning to Puntland or Mogadishu. The agreeing is available in the local libraries for those who want to read. Aparently Dhulos want to do the same mistake again and if they do this, their land should be reclaimed by other Somalilanders.

    • you're too fixated with the dhulbahante mate, besides I honestly I don't know why you're pretending to be Awdaltes, is it cowardness or you're trying to create animosity between the people Khaatumo and Awdal?

  23. I don't post comments here as I used due to my busy lifestyle tho I don't see how this article has anything to do with Khaatumo and Dhulbahante, but those of you who are against this sacred state existence well, let me put this way, do your generation a favour sleep more and avoid utilizing your human production system for the sake of future generations because you'll see khaatumo and more and more in the future inshallah

    • Amirah,

      To honest I do not understand what using the human reproductive system has got to do with the current debate. Are you alluding that you are open for marriage or what? My understanding is that you meant to say your biological clock is ticking. Is that it? in that case, put your picture on this site and let us see what we can do for you (offence intended).

  24. There's a famous quot.Treat others as you wish to be treated,You denied others what's rightfully theirs and I will guaranteed you, someone else will denied you every step of the way what rightfully is your.Just think about that.

    • Dhugtame,

      I agree and that must apply to all. Truth and justice are roads to all successes. Mark my words; illusive propaganda leads to failure after failure and nothing else. The winners are not the ones who kill and cause misery to their people and neighbors, but the ones who try to better themselves and their neighbors.

      Just think about that and see who is wrong and who is right, because one of the two has to be right.

  25. To be relevant they will butcher people illegally in their valleys of death!

    This is nothing but the last gasps of Alshabab terrorists. The annihilists know that they are on throes of death and are trying to up the ante to make Somalia seem like ungovernable. Let us finish up the pressure until the these terrorists and foreign jihadist allies are destroyed completely.__

  26. Dhugtame,

    I agree and fairness must apply to all. Truth and justice are roads to all successes. Mark my words; illusive propaganda leads to failure after failure and nothing else. The winners are not the ones who kill and cause misery to their people and neighbors, but the ones who try to better themselves and their neighbors.

    Just think about that and see who is wrong and who is right, because one of the two has to be right.

  27. May I rerun to the original subject of rape when a minor was sexually assaulted by an adult. Thi is a honorific crime and this appears to be the tip of the iceberg as we all know that for almost 22 years children in Mogashu have been experiencing traumatic experience of rape, killing and so and so forth. The current admitstration in Mogadishu or previous administration has never been their utmost periory for addressing this issue and they never will be.
    It’s converting that Alshabab is still ruling some parts of Mogashu despite culusow claims that Abgaal is ruling Mogadishu.
    This hot topic is a serious case which should Culusow’s one of his fake pillars. It s more coencing that this issues has never been brought in to the medial outlets due to its sensitivity and this should be an opportunity for everybody who cares for minors in Mogadhusho and it should be discussed and debated among others about how to tackle this issue in future.
