Mogadishu, Somalia, February 20, 2010 (SL Times) – Sheikh Sharif's militias shot and wounded Abdillahi Sahal Gardhub, the head of Hamarweyn district of Banadir region, and four of his bodyguards. It is not clear why Sheikh Sharif's militia fired on an official who is part of their own administration but this is not the first time this sort of thing happens. Despite being trained by several different countries, Sheikh Sharif's militia still mostly behave as undisciplined militias that often fight among themselves and extort money from civilians.
