SOMALILAND: THREE CONVICTED OF MURDERS EXECUTED

The breakaway northern Somalia region of Somaliland executed three people including a woman and her son by firing squad after being convicted of murdering a woman. 
A court in Hargeisa found the boy and his mother guilty of murdering Ruqiya Saeed Ayanle by burying her alive inside their house. The police said Ms Ayanle had been killed due to an argument over a debt she owed. 
According to witnesses the three were tied to poles outside a notorious Mandera military prison before masked soldiers randomly shot them to death.
