Unidentified gunmen assassinated Abdisalan Faleg. Faleg was formerly one of the militia leaders loyal to the TFG MP Mohamed Ibrahim Habsade. Faleg hails from the Rahanweyn/Leysan clan. He was one of the important allies of the AS after the movement took control of Baidoa town in January 2009. After the takeover Faleg worked closely with the AS forces and especially with Mukhtar Roobow. Faleg reportedly recently fell apart with Habsade sub-clan members after they accused him of giving information to the AS about hidden weapons belonging to the sub-clan, leading to the confiscation of all equipment by AS. Feleg was reported not to have visited Baidoa since the weapons were confiscated in July 2011. |
