Somaliland : Suspected German National transferred to Berbera for security reasons

Hargeisa -The case of a German ,Gunter Bichoss a former GTZ representative in Somaliland is accused of making indecent films with Somaliland women has been transferred to Berbera according to local papers.

It has become very difficult to hold the court hearing of Mr. Gunter in Hargiesa because of the huge presence of crowds angered by the action of the accused around the court location.

On an earlier date , Mr.Gunter Bischoss was accused of decadent behavior and shooting of immoral movies acted by Somali ladies. The accused who was arrested and remanded in custody is waiting for trial which will take place in Berbera court.

This is the first case of its kind in Somaliland history as something like this has never been heard before by Hargiesa inhabitants. The case is expected to be ruled this week in Berbera .

The suspect has been in Somaliland for a couple of years. His immoral behaviours which are contrary to the Somali culture as well as the Islamic religion shocked the religious leaders as well as the rest of the populace. Reports indicate that there are other foreign men who are spreading such behavior and the security officers are pursuing them.

There are many Humanitarian organisations in Somaliland particularly in the Capital , Hargeisa and these agencies often recruit foreign experts for their offices in the city.

Second Kenyan airline launches direct flights to Somaliland

By DANIEL OTIENO

Nairobi-Jetlink is set to launch flights to Eritrea and Somaliland as it seeks to establish itself in the region.

The airline is aiming at tapping the increased movement of people and goods within the East African and Comesa trading blocs.

Just a week after launching a direct international flight to Mwanza, the Hargeisa route is set to start next Monday with Eritrea being the next destination.

The company’s managing director, Mr Elly Aluvale, said the removal of trade and movement barriers had increased traffic into the East African region, hence the need for a faster and affordable means of transport.

Mr Aluvale said competition in the local aviation industry had pushed operators to charge lower prices, pegging their profits on numbers.

Mr Aluvale spoke in Mwanza when Prime Minister Raila Odinga launched the inaugural flight to the Tanzanian town on the shores of Lake Victoria.

Unfair practices

During the ceremony, Mr Aluvale decried what he termed as unfair practices that hindered competition in the market, saying the government should level the playing field.

Transport Minister Amos Kimunya said plans were under way to build a second runway at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport to accommodate increased traffic.

“The expansion and modernisation of the various airport infrastructural facilities is aimed at meeting the increased demand for aviation services within Kenya and in the East African region in general,” he said.

The minister said the government would continue to negotiate and review Bilateral Air Services Agreements to expand the available routes for Kenyan airlines.

Mr Odinga said the JKIA had become Eastern Africa’s aviation hub. He said the government would improve airports in major towns to ease pressure off Nairobi.

The PM said the management of Kisumu Airport must be prepared to meet the increased traffic.

“This facility closes at 8pm. It’s time they woke up to the fresh challenges and see how they can reschedule their operations,” Mr Odinga said.
