Mogadishu, Somalia, June 12, 2010 (SL Times) – Somali parliamentarian Dahir Abdiqadir Muse accused African peacekeepers (AMISOM) in Mogadishu of massacring civilians. Speaking to the press in Mogadishu, he said, "AMISOM has brought a lot of hardship on the people, especially in times of armed conflict when they deliberately fire artillery on civilians in specific neighborhoods." Elaborating on this point, the parliamentarian added that the African troops have not brought peace to the population of Mogadishu and can hardly protect themselves and the high officials of the Somali government. He appealed to the African Union to take their troops out of Somalia.
