Mogadishu, Aug 18 (PressTV) - Ethiopian soldiers have dumped the bodies of four brutally murdered young men in the streets of southern Mogadishu's Hoosh district.
The first of the three bodies was dismembered and thrown onto the streets in the Hoosh district while three more young men, having been shot or mutilated by soldiers, suffered the same fate on the outskirts of the area, Press TV correspondent reported.
Hundreds of young people are fleeing the district in fear of their lives and tearful elders in the community vow these atrocious acts will be brought before an international tribunal.
Such unconscionable acts are commonplace in the Horn of Africa which has been plagued by civil war. The current Transitional Federal Government backed by the Ethiopian military has been at war with local factions, principally the Islamic Courts Union, since 2006.
