| Description |
Relatives of prisoners detained in Borama central prison demonstrated in front of the prison on 18/02 to protest against the transfer of some prisoners to Mandheera (80km NE of Hargeisa). The transfer was reportedly decided due to the congestion of the Borama jail, and would make difficult visits to detainees from Awdal Region. The governor Awdal Region and the mayor of Borama addressed the demonstrators and promised that they would attempt to find a solution to the issue. No violence was reported. |
