Al-Shabaab executed three men for spy allegations, the militant group announced on its Facebook page. The three men handcuffed and blindfolded were executed by a firing squad in front of crowd of people in the town of Barawe after an Al-Shabaab judge convicted the men for implementing intelligence operation leading to the assassinations of senior commanders of the group.
One of the three executed was Ahmed Abdullaahi Mohamed Farole, 47, a nephew of former Puntland President Abdurahman Mohamed Farole. He was charged on spying the Mujahedin fighters and had participated in hunting senior commanders of the Mujahidin, the unnamed Al-Shabaab judge said.
