Following the death of a clan elder in prison, reported yesterday, a group of people (mainly youths and women) staged a demonstration in front of Ceerigaabo hospital, in protest to a report stating that the incident was a natural death. The protestors claimed that the prison guards refused to take the victim to hospital before his death.
