The Military Court of the Armed Forces in Jubbaland has handed down verdicts against four defendants accused of robbery, mobile phone theft, and causing injuries to civilians.
After carefully reviewing the charges presented by the prosecution and examining the findings of the case investigator, the court sentenced three of the accused namely Fuad Adan Daud, Muhidin Abdullaahi Ali, and Abdiqani Mohamud Bile to three years in prison each.
In addition to the prison term, Muhidin Abdullaahi Ali was ordered to pay compensation for injuries he inflicted on Mohamed Abdinaasir Abdullaahi, reflecting the court’s commitment to ensuring justice for victims.
