Somali Journalist Hassan Hanafi convicted for his role in the killing of journalists publicly executed by firing squad (photos)
Hassan Hanafi, sentenced to death last month after military judges
said he had confessed to his role in the killing of five journalists,
was executed at a police academy in the capital Mogadishu shortly after
dawn.
Several journalists watched the execution and said Hanafi struggled
as he was taken to be killed, with the police having to tie him to the
firing post.
He confessed and was found guilty of masterminding the murder of
several Somali journalists...
Hanafi was arrested in August 2014 in Kenya and extradited to Somalia late that year.
