Somalia — More than 200 detained Somali immigrants in Liyan jails have started drinking poison, just after they missed their right of livelihood and health in the prisons, witnesses told Shabelle radio on Tuesday.
Sources in Libya said that 200 Somali immigrants are in the jails of Karanbodia town about 40 kilometers to the capital of Libya Tripoli where the security guards of the prisons commit brutal actions to the Somali people like torturing and so on which caused the detained Somali immigrants to drink poison.
Ibrahim Modobe, one of the Somali prisoners in Karanboldia-2 jail said that the detained Somalis halted eating earlier which the security guards of the prisons refused and started torturing them which lastly caused the detainees to drink the poison.
He said no one has died for the poison so far.
Somalis in Libyan jails were caught from different places; some of them were caught as they were sailing to the Italians coasts while some others were captured from the capital city of Libya Tripoli and the Sahara between Sudan and Libya.
Most of the Somali immigrants did not get advocating and rights in Libya and there are more other Somalis who are in jails of other countries like Botswana, Tanzania, Libya, Sudan and other countries in the African continent.
All these are responsible for the insecurity situations and non stop fighting in Somalia since the over throw of Si'ad Barre's government.

It's sad to see how somalis are suffering in other peoples land. I think it's time for the warlords to know that they are doing bad for their civillians God will charge them for the wrong they are doing. By which ever reason peace can not be bought or brought, it's only made by people who are willing to. Can anybody came up to speak to these fighting fractions cause fighting has never been a solution but make them understand peace, human life, good leadership without selfishness etc... Which their neighbours do enjoy.
