Somalia: Mogadishu's Ex-Mayor Compound Invaded By Ethiopians


An army of Ethiopian soldiers headed by a Tigrey sergeant stormed the house of the ex Mayer of Mogadishu, Mohammed Dheere, earlier today.  The soldiers were heavily equiped with tanks and automatic machine guns.

Imedietely after invading Mr. Dheere's home, the Ethiopians set up a barracade along the corners of his compound then spread themselves near the surrounding area.  

There are no reports on the whereabouts of Mr. Dheere but some suspect he may have been taken into custody by the Ethiopian soldiers.

Mohammed Dheere served as the Mayor of Mogadishu under the Somali TFG and was a key ally to the now ex-Somali President Abdullahi Yusuf.  Mr. Dheere was fired as the Mogadishu Mayer by the current Somali Prime Minister with whom he had unresolvable disagreements.

The sources add that the sergeant heading the Ethiopian troops that took control of Mr. Dheere's compound had prevously been accused, by the Mogadishu's ex-Mayor, of mingling with Mogadishu's tax collection staff, unlawfully arresting and taking into custody one of the staff members.  

As the Ethiopian soldiers are expected to withdraw from Somalia in the next few days, this operation is seen by the Somali public as revenge on Mr. Dheere by the sergeant.\
