Mogadishu, Somalia, October 31, 2009 (SL Times) – More and more members of Somalia’s bloated parliament are asking for asylum in Europe.
According to Dayniile.net these parliamentarians were driven to asking for asylum because of the dangerous situation in Somalia’s capital Mogadishu where the government only controls a few pockets and most of the city falls under the authority of the insurgents.
The latest parliamentarians to ask for asylum are Maalin Jiis and Yusuf Gurow.
Italy is the country where the largest numbers of parliamentarians have asked for asylum, and the Italian government was reported to have asked Somalia’s government to take back its parliamentarians.
