Somalia Confirms Return Of Entire Delegation From Geneva

The government denied media reports claiming that members of the country's official delegation to the International Labor Conference (ILC) in Geneva 'disappeared'.

In a statement, the Ministry of Labor said that although few senior officials of the delegation remained - after the majority returned - this is "standard practice" to allow for the completion of "committee work and voting on key resolutions".

The government accused some members of the Somali diaspora of being the source of the "defamatory campaign".
