Hargeisa (HOL) – The bodies of Huda Ahmed Farah and Hamse Ahmed Yusuf were discovered Thursday morning inside a luxury car in Hargeisa’s Shabab neighbourhood.
Residents reported that the young girl and man had gone missing the previous night after leaving their families and failing to respond to phone calls.
A preliminary statement from the Director General of Hargeisa Hospital described the incident as “strange” and confirmed that forensic teams and police are working to uncover the cause of death.
“The investigation is still in its early stages,” the hospital official said.
The young girl and Yusuf, a Somaliland’s presidential guard member, were last in contact through a text message on Huda’s phone. The message reportedly read, “I have just come out,” suggesting they had planned to meet before their deaths.
A source within the presidential guard told HOL that authorities suspect the pair may have consumed a poisoned drink, though investigations are underway.
