A group of armed militiamen driving a vehicle attacked the Puntland customs check-point in Bulo-Kontrol at the green-line in Galkacyo. Some reports indicate that relatives of militiamen arrested earlier in the day at an illegal checkpoint in Bayra area went to agitate for the release of these militiamen. Puntland police reinforced control on access points to the town from South and clashed with the militiamen. One Puntland police officer was killed and two civilians wounded in a drive-by shooting at the checkpoint by perpetrators who escaped with their vehicle towards south Galkacyo. |
