Somalia Opposition Politicians say president Farmajo is using the Turkish trained Harama’ad-Cheetah police unit against them
Ankara is planning to send 1,000 G3 assault rifles and 150,000 bullets to Harama’ad police unit
Somalilandsun: Somalia’s opposition has urged Ankara not to send a shipment of weapons to a special police unit because they fear that Somali president could use them for “rigging” the approaching national elections. The call has put Turkey’s engagement in a country torn apart by civil war for decades under the spotlight.
Opposition candidates wrote to Turkey’s ambassador in Somalia and expressed their concern about these weapons coming into the country in such a “sensitive election period.”
