Many
Civilians Detained in Qabri Dahar |
Feb 05,
2007 The Ethiopian colonial dictatorship
in Addis Ababa is reported to have sent
a high-ranking member of the Tigrian militia
forces to the city of Qabri Dahar. The
high-ranking militia member who has since
reached the city of Qabri Dahar is said to
have been accompanied by Somalis with close
ties to the Ethiopian military.
It is reported that the mission of this high
ranking member and his Somali spies is to
implement new tactics intended to increase
the extra judicial killings and detentions
of innocent civilians in and around the city
of Qabri Dahar.
The high ranking militia member and his
Somali spies are said to have convened a
meeting for the city dwellers. In the
meeting, the city dwellers were asked to
volunteer to the Tigrian forces that have
had difficult time so far to confront Ogaden
National Liberation Forces, ONLF, in many
parts of Ogaden.
Instead of accepting the proposal to
volunteer to the Tigrian forces, many city
dwellers present in this meeting are
reported to have told in no uncertain terms
that it is the job of the Ethiopian military
and its affiliated militias to fight with
ONLF.
It is said that the high-ranking visitor was
visibly upset by the response from the
civilians present in the meeting. Eye
witnesses present in the meeting who were
seated not far from this visitor have told
the Ogaden Online reporter in Qabri Dahar
that he, the high ranking visitor, told his
hosts to end the meeting immediately.
Immediately after the end of the meeting, it
is said that this high-ranking militia
member gave orders for the detention of many
of the civilians that were present in this
meeting and any other civilian encountered
in the city streets. As a result the people
whose names appear below are the one who
