A traditional elder wounds another elder in Hargeisa


Friday August 25, 2023

Hargeisa (HOL) - A clash between two respected traditional elders, Sultan Saleban Boqor Osman—also known as "Habar"—and Sultan Aresh, resulted in Sultan Mahad Aresh sustaining injuries in Hargeisa, the capital of Somaliland, on Thursday.

Sultan Habar shot a bullet into the leg of Sultan Mahad Aresh following an argument between the two Sultans. Swiftly, police forces intervened, apprehending Sultan Habar at the scene, and the wounded elder was taken to a medical facility for treatment.

This incident echoes a similar occurrence from last year when Sultan Habar injured a Somaliland House of Representatives member, Guruuje, during a confrontation involving the use of a stick.

Sultan Habar, a well-known elder in Somaliland, is recognized for his strong and articulate speech when addressing the media.
