UN holds emergency session on Somalia’s political crisis
(COMBO/FILES) This combination of file pictures created on September 07, 2021 shows Somalia's President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed (L), commonly know as Farmajo walks to make his speech during the inauguration ceremony of Djibouti International Free Trade Zone (DIFTZ) in Djibouti on July 5, 2018 and Somalias Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble (R) attending the closing ceremony after reaching an agreement for the new elections at the National Consultative Council on Elections in Mogadishu, Somalia, on May 27, 2021. - For months, the mysterious disappearance of Somali intelligence agent Ikran Tahlil raised few eyebrows in elite circles, but now the young woman's fate threatens to trigger a major political crisis, with the president and prime minister at loggerheads. The 25-year-old officer with the National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA) was abducted near her Mogadishu home in June, and last week her employers concluded that she had been kidnapped and killed by Al-Shabaab jihadists. The militants promptly -- and unusually -- issued a denial, while Tahlil's family accused NISA of murdering her -- a view backed by many Somalis who have taken to social media to denounce the agency and demand justice. Some unconfirmed media reports speculated that Tahlil was targeted by NISA because she had access to sensitive information about Somali troops undergoing training in Eritrea. Mogadishu has been at pains to deny allegations that it has secretly deployed soldiers from training camps in Eritrea to fight in Ethiopia's war-torn Tigray region. On Saturday, Prime Minister Mohamed Hussein Roble said NISA's report naming Al-Shabaab as the culprit was "not convincing and lacks sufficient evidence". Forty-eight hours later, he fired the agency's director Fahad Yasin, a close friend of President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed. The president, commonly known as Farmajo, soon came to the aid of his old friend and dismissed the sacking as "illegal and unconstitutional" in a statement
