REPORT IN HARGEISA SOMALILAND'S PRISON
This story looks terribly unfinished but the content is still worth sharing.
I travelled to Somaliland in 2011, when I was based in Nairobi. I later travelled to Mogadishu in April 2012. Not much has changed since then... Somali are still spread out in camps for displaced people in Somalia and in refugee camps in Kenya and Ethiopia.
If you have a couple of minutes, this video can be an introduction to the problem links to the fight against piracy in the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean and the fate of the imprisoned pirates....
Reporting in Somaliland's capital, Hargeisa, for the opening of a prison rehabilitated by the UN (UNODC)
Notes from my previous blog, in 2011:
Visiting Somaliland with the UNODC, the UN Office on drugs and crime:
We were allowed to visit the new prison the UN helped to rehabilitate, in Hargeisa, the capital of Somaliland, on its opening day, March 29.
I also went to the port city of Berbera on the Somaliland coast, to visit the old prison built by the Ottomans and to meet with the Coast Guards.
