Militias loyal to the TFP Speaker were reportedly engaged in a shootout with members of the Presidential Guard at a check-point within the Villa Somalia compound. The speaker's bodyguards apparently demanded access without being searched and after several minutes of argument opened fire on the President Guards who were denying them access to the compound. A TFG Colonel (Mohamed Hassan Kahiye "Arabow") was critically injured. Three other Presidential Guard and four civilians also sustained various injuries. The shootout occurred while the TFG leaders were planning to disclose the list of the new TFG Cabinet and is possibly related to a dispute between the President and the Speaker over the composition of the Cabinet. |
