SUBJECT: INQUIRY INTO SHOOTING OF $CF (USA) EMPLOYEE BY PAKISTANI TROOPS

' Please find attached, a self-explanatory letter from SCF (USA) of 16 July 1994. We feel that the only way to resolve this issue is to conduct an inquiry into the incident. I would propose that this be conducted by one representative each from Forces Command, OCHA and SCF (USA). The inquiry is necessary to restore the trust of the humanitarian community in the UN mission after such an incident.

Mr. Carrol Faubert Coordinator for Humanitarian Affairs UNOSOM Mogadishu, Somalia.

Dear Mr. Faubert,

This letter is to request you to urgently investigate the killing of Hussein Farah Orner by Pakistani troops on 1 3 July 1994.

Hussein, age 55 years, has been SCF-USA ' s money facilitator for one and a half years. He was on his way to Qorioley with the SCF-USA payroll and project funds, traveling in a vehicle marked with our agency name and protected by 4 armed guards all of whom have red cards legitimizing their weapons. The vehicle stopped at the checkpoint and Hussein got out to show their cards to the UN soldiers. Hussein was not carrying a weapon, nor did h e a t any point in this incident.

At this point several vehiqles arrived rapidly at the checkpoint a nd shouted at the soldiers to let them pass. Eyewitnesses report the Pakistani soldiers began to fire at the vehicles and the SCF-USA vehicle moved forward to avoid the shooting. Hussein was still standing at the checkpoint trying to cool down the situation. Two UN armoured vehicles began to fire and one o f the s oldiers pushed Hussein by the neck. several people began to run away· and Hussein ran after them; he is lame and could not run as f a s t .as the others. When he got to the wall of the Medi c al factory, he turned and it was at this po int that he wa s shot. His body was struc k by more than one bulle t and he was probably k i lled ins t a ntl y.

Th e Pakis t a ni s o l diers immediately put hi s body i n one of t h e armoured v e h i c l es and it was taken to the Pakistani Hospita l .

UNOSOM' s report at t e s ecurity Briefing on 1 4 July and a g a in a t the press Briefing that same day claimed that Husse in had been armed and had shot at or threatened one o f the soldi e rs. Th e r e ha ve bee n s ubs equent reports that one o f t h e s o ldjer s had been wounded by Hussein. These r eports are fa lse .

We have t a ken statements from 7 eye wi t n e sses tc th jE e~@,,!. a ll of the m contradi c t UNOSOM' s a ccount.

Those of us who ha v e worked with Hussein knew him as a quiet and peaceful person, ne ver carryipg a weapon of any sort, even though his work involved the transport of sometimes large sums of money.

We will follow the progress of this investigation very careful and ask you to keep us informed at each step. Needless to say we are prepared to share all of our information, as requird to help in this inquiry.

I look forward to hearing from you shortly in response to this request.

Yours sincerely,

Abdullahi Mirre Team Leader SCF (USA) , Mogadi Somalia.

~ub·ect: Withdrawal of Nepalese Troops from the UNDP Premisc.:s in Mogadishu_ l<cfon.,11;,: Nu.: ~ -t.1 4 !> I

We lean1ed since yesterday of an intention to remove the Nepalese troops currently deployed to protect the UNDP premises in Mogadishu.

We are deeply concern about the coniiequences such a withdrawal will entail for UN DP. At present, discussions are undenvay between our field security officer and UNOSOM chief security coordinator to the effect that the withdrawal is avoided given the current fragile security situation in the rurea where the prt:1nises arc located.

I wish to solicit your kind personal intervention to ensure that the withdrawal is not effected.

Thank you in advance for your support and initiative to maintain the best possible security arrangements for the United Nations agencies iu Mogadishu.

With best regards .

SUBJECT: Rehabilitation of an Irriiation Canal in Sballamboot, Lower Sbabelle Re~on

Further to our telephone conversation, please find attached the Project Outline of the Rehabilitation of an Irrigation Canal in Shallamboot, Lower Shabelle Region to be financed by the Japanese Trost Fond of the United Naitons Volunteers programme.

The UNV programme has agreed to pay a volunteer allowance of SS6,000 or equivalent of SI.SO per day to each of SO Somali rehabilitation volunteer workers for a period of one month to undertake the rehabilitation wort. To complete the document, you should obtain the breakdown of costs for expendable equipment and construction materials. Provided this information is obtained, the document can be signed by you and DPPG as authorized by the Executive Co-ordinator of the UN Volunteers programme. DPPG will then authorize DOA for disbursement of funds to enable the implementation of the project.

Please note the project is designed to enhance the spirit of selfreliance and the capacity of the community to manage and sustain their own rehabilitation and development works. Therefore the amount of volunteer allowance is kept at the level close to one which can be sustained by the community.

SUMMARY DESCRIPTION

The objective of this project is to encourage the participation of local Somalis in a community based approad for rehabilitation of an irrigation canal in Sballamboot. The project is expected to last for one month and will be executed by the UNOSOM Force Command, in particular the Nigerian Contingent, in cooperation with the community based organizations of Shallamboot.

The rehabilitation of the Shallamboot canal will involve 50 able-bodied Somalis, regardless of gender and clan, who will assist in rehabilitating the irrigation canal. Rehabilitation work will be done under the supervision and coordination of the Nigerian contingent with an international UNV staff acting a as project monitor and a Somali national officer as the project coordinator.

The benefits derived from the projects are viewed in both non-material and material terms. The canal will provide substantial water supply to the community for irrigation and other agricultural purposes. Economic activities will pick up resulting in employment and better standard of living.

As the length of stay of the Nigerian contingent in Merca is time-bound and is dependent on the mandate of UNOSOM, the people of ShaHamboot are expected to continue and sustain the irregational canal by initiating, encouraging community participation, it is expected that the peopJe will continue to keep their community clean, free of garbage and properly disposed. Once the canal is functional and operational, the people of Sballamboot and Merca are expected to manage and maintain the infrastructure in order to sustain its operations.

Through the initial administration and management of the Nigerian contingent stationed in Merca, and an international UNV and a Somali national officer, it is expected that key individuals or groups will be identified and trained in the management and maintenance of the canal.

If successful, this project is expected to be replicated in other communities and zones as an initial tangible step towards sustainable governance and human development.

BACKGROUND

The departure of UN agencies and the closure of the UNOSOM office in April 1994, has left Merca as one of the zones where humanitarian assistance has ceased to be extended. The Italian-operated TB hospital and clinic, are the only two international organizations in Merca providing health services.

The deployment of the Nigerian contingent in Merca after the April 1994 incident, is an indication of UNOSOM's sole presence in the zone. It also acts as a security buffer, not only in Merca but in adjacent areas. Aside from its security and representation functions, the

Nigerian contingent has initiated community-based self-help projects as a means of extending assistance and encouraging people's participation in small-scale rehabilitation projects in communities in the Lower Shabelle Region.

MAIN OBJECTIVE

The main objective of this project is to motivate and encourage the participation of the people living in the Lower Shabelle Region. The project aims at assisting the community in sanitation and rehabilitation of an irrigation canal.

It is hoped that by encouraging participation in rehabilitating the canal, a short-term support to mobilising group made available to the people of Shallamboot to enable them to start rebuilding their community. This short-term form of volunteer resource mobilisation is also expected to help the participating Somalis in providing subsistence for themselves and their families. By rehabilitating the canal, it is expected that agricultural activity would commence and would lead to employment and better standard of living of the community.

ANTICIPATED BENEFITS AND POSSIBLE SUSTAINABILITY

The project is short-term, time bound and security dependent as such the benefits to be derived from it are modest, when considering the entire Lower Shabelle Region, but very substantial for the community. Nevertheless, the benefit can be a motivating factor in itself.

The rehabilitation of the canal will provide substantial water supply to the community for crop production and other agricultural purposes. This will stimulate employment and its effects of better standard of living.

As the length of stay of the Nigerian contingent in Merca is time-bound and is dependent on the mandate of UNOSOM, the people of Sballamhoot are expected to continue and sustain the project themselves. Through the initial administration and management of the Nigerian contingent, stationed in Merca, an international UNV and a Somali national officer, it is expected that key individuals or groups will be identified and trained in the management and maintenance of the canal.

If properly managed and maintained, the canal may serve as catalyst for other communitybased self-help projects for small-scale rehabilitation and reconstruction. And if successful, the projects may be replicated in other adjacent areas and zones as an initial step toward sustainable governance and human development.

SUPPORT LINKAGES

The project will serve as a pilot activity in laying the foundation for a more

3

I I I I l

I I

I I

comprehensive and long-term sustainable governance and human resource development programmes for the rehabilitation of Somalia. As it will be executed by UNOSOM, in particular the Nigerian contingent, it will receive considerable support in terms of logistics and other back-stopping facilities provided by the mission. It will also receive support from the various divisions of UNOSOM and from various technical and administrative support of cooperating UN agencies.

At the local level, the project will be supported by the people of Shallamboot who are the main beneficiaries.

IMPLEMENTATION MODALITIES

The project will be implemented by the UNOSOM Force Command, in particular, the Nigerian contingent, the World Food Programme with financial assistance from the Japanese Trust Fund of the United Nations Volunteers Programme through the Policy and Planning Group of UNOSOM.

The Nigerian contingent, an international UNY specialist and a Somali national officer will monitor the implementation of the project.

It will be the responsibility of the Nigerian contingent to budget and allocate time and resources accordingly in order to meet the project's deadline and objectives.

As the project is a short-term alternative form of local volunteer resource mobilisation with the objective of undertaking small-scale rehabilitation in Shallamboot, the Nigerian contingent in consultation with the UNY specialist and the national officer will identify the participating community members for the two separate activities in accordance with existing channels and bodies in the communities such as clan elders, religious leaders, etc.

To encourage community participation, it is recommended that a voluntary allowance be given to the amount of SS 6,000 per working day (US 1.50 per working day). It should be emphasized at the onset that no puyment will be made unless work or service has been rendered for the day. The modalities of payment and administration will be determined by the Nigerian contingent as appropriate.

Also and if necessary, the Nigerian contingent will have the option to readjust the voluntary allowance taking into consideration the equilibrium existing between compensation offered by other agencies and the prevailing standard of living. However, the total amount of funds provided by the United Nations Volunteers programme cannot exceed the amount stipulated on the budget.

It should be reiterated that this project is a short-term assistance, as such there is no possibility of long-term support by UNV and UNOSOM beyond the duration and the amount of funds indicated on the ducument. The Implementing Agency is responsible for informing the recipient community that the long-term sustainability of the canal depends on the commitment and willingness of the people of Shallamboot to carry-on such activity.

SUBJECT: FIRING FROM HELICOPTER

Your Excellency,

1. I wish to inform you that on Thursday 21 Jul 94 at approximately 10:25 am, a white helicopter without any UN marking fired a number of rounds towards a firing range. The helicopter was later identified and confirmed by the staff of the USLO to be their helicopter. My Force Headquarters was never aware or informed of the intention.

2. It would be greatly appreciated if my Force Headquarters be kindly informed of future similar intention. As you are fully aware as a result of the firing, USLO and UN helicopters could be mistaken to form a threat by the Somalis and thus endangering the helicopters. Early information would also enable us to take necessary safety precautions to avoid risk to own troops in the general area.

3. Your urgent attention in this matter is highly appreciated.

4. Best regards.

SUBJECT: FIRING FROM HELICOPTER

Your Excellency,

l . I wish to inform you that on Thursday 21 Jul 94 at approximately 10:25 am, a white helicopter without any UN marking fired a number of rounds towards a firing range. The helicopter was later identified and confirmed by the staff of the USLO to be their helicopter. My Force Headquarters was never aware or informed of the intention.

2. It would be greatly appreciated if my Force Headquarters be kindly informed of future similar intention. As you are fully aware as a result of the firing, USLO and UN helicopters could be mistaken to form a threat by the Somalis and thus endangering the helicopters. Early information would also enable us to take necessary safety precautions to avoid risk to own troops in the general area.

3. Your urgent attention in this matter is highly appreciated.

4. Best regards.

RAMIFICATIONS OF UNOSOM TROOP REDUCTION

1. Attached please find a copy of the Force Command Deployment Options for Reduced Force Level which provides four options for the possible reduction of UNOSOM troop strength.

2. Could you please indicate if your staff could continue to function in each of the Zone and sub-Zone offices vacated by UNOSOM military under the four options and how this would affect your programmes.

3. I further request the Coordinator of Humanitarian Affairs to consult with the Agencies and NGOs to determine if they could continue to operate in areas which are vacated by UNOSOM troops and how this would affect their programmes.

4. Since this exercise is being undertaken to provide the Secretary-General with information on the ramifications of a reduction in Force level before the deliberations of the Security Council, kindly provide me with your analysis by 23 July 1994 at 15.00 hours.

Thank you.

* THE PRINCIPLE EFFECT OF REDUCING FORCE LEVELS TO 10,000 OR 12,000 WOULD BE TO CONFINE FORCE COMMAND TO OPERATIONS IN MOGADISHU WITH OCCASIONAL FORAYS OUT TO THE REGIONS, WHICH FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES WOULD HAVE BEEN ABANDONED BY UNOSOM. THIS CONTRACTION OF THE FORCE TO MOGADISHU WOULD RENDER MUCH OF THE VALUABLE WORK WHICH HAS BEEN DONE IN THE REGIONS OPEN TO THREAT.

* A FORCE LEVEL OF 16,000 WOULD REQUIRE SOME OF THE OUTLYING AREAS TO BE GIVEN UP WHICH WOULD PRO];JABLY RESULT IN THE ULTIMATE WITHDRAWAL OF UNOSOM CIVILIANS AND NGOs FROM THESE AREAS.

* WIT H A F ORCE LEVEL OF 14,000 IN ADDITION TO ABOVE WOULD ALSO DEPRIVE US FROM AN ALTERNATE PORT THAT IS KISMAYO.

* FORCE LEVELS CANNOT BE FURTHER REDUCED WITHOUT A OMMENSURATE REDUCTION IN TASKING AND THE GEOGRAPHIC

OF OPERATIONAL RESPONSIBILITY.

Reference: CTS/07/ 14//94

Subject: LACK OF PROTECTION BY UNOSOM MILITARY FORCES

1. Several recent security incidents have highlighted the tack of protection currently being provided to UNOSOM staff, contractors and property by the UNOSOM Military Forces. These incidents range from simple procedural errors such as the lack of provision of previously-arranged escorts, through the lack of protection of contractor's property by the abandonment of military-escorted contractor's vehicles to looting by militia, right up to lack of protection oflife in the case of the removal by armed militia of four local employees (and the reported execution of one of those employees) from a military-escorted convoy. These incidents are just several from a litany of complaints on the subject.

2. Some of our staff members are forced by their jobs to travel within Mogadishu, many on a daily basis. Most of those staff members travel in or with the routine escorted convoys to and from the Airport, or to and from the Vehicle Workshop. The security afforded by that military escort is brought into question by the ease of removal from an Airport convoy of the four passengers mentioned above. The staff members who travel with non-routine escorts are beginning to question the security of that method after repeated procedural errors and the more recent incident of abandonment of the "escorted" contractor's vehicles.

3. The next incident of passenger removal or vehicle looting may directly involve UNO SOM staff. UNO SOM staff and contractors are entitled to the protection and security offered by the presence of the 19,000-strong UNOSOM Military Force. That is, after all is said and done, one of the major reasons the Military Force is here. There is a growing perception amongst UNO SOM staff and contractors that protection and security will not be forthcoming when it is needed.

4. It is expected that in the near future an announcement will be made on the future of the UNOSOM mandate. That announcement may quite possibly focus the warring militia's attention on the imminent cessation of the cash flow into Somalia. UNO SOM staff, contractors and prope1ty may also then become targets for kidnap and looting.

5. Per our recent discussion, it now appears to be time to raise the matter of security of UNO SOM staff, contractors and property with the Chief of Staff (M).

On the 12th July '94 Tuesday a scheduled convoy of 3 Trucks: (One Mercedes Truck Al 10 Trailer T 1 Renault Bowser UNOSOM 1020 and another Mercedes Truck A112 as a backup truck) went to Merca with "Nigerian Escorts" who showed up in the morning at 0900Hrs.

We got a telephone call from the Nigerian LNO at around 1830Hrs asking us if our trucks had arrived at our base because he said he was aware of shooting near Hunters Base.

Shortly after that we got in a call from our Convoy Incharge, in panic, told us that in the vicinity of Hunter Base the convoy was ambushed by bandits. The Nigerian "Escorts" fled, abandoning our trucks. He and the driver of the Renault Bowser as well as the driver of truck Al 12 barely managed to escape, under fire, they managed to reach the Embassy Compound.

Two of our men were not that lucky, they and our two trucks ended up in the hands of these bandits. One hour later we got a relieving telephone call from the LCC's office, that one of our people had been released and found his way to Hunters Base. Still missing, one person and two trucks with one trailer.

Sir, I would like to draw your attention to tbe following enclosed letters. - ref: 5/5/94cya5 - ref : 18/5/94cya7 - ref : 94823cya8

cc Movecon, Nigerian LNO

Date : 18/5/1994

Dear Sir,

As you are aware that Tuesday 17/5/94 our mission was to supply fuel to Merca, escort was supplied by the Nigerian contingent.

Escorts showed up as scheduled. Arriving Merca with no major problems. On the way back, due to the weather and the road conditions the convoy encountered some difficulties and was thus delayed. Just pass the Southern compound the Nigerian escort abandoned the trucks. They had to proceed unescorted to the airport gate where the Egyptian Security denied them access because of the Somali drivers.

In view of the incident that happened at the southern compound just the day before and the time of the convoy passing this area. I have to admit that I am not very comfortable with the Nigerians as escorts because it is not the first time they put us in this kind of situation.

Re: Nigerian escorts

MOGADISHO

CC: Movecon, Nigerian LNO

Dear sir,

Hereby I wish to express my discontent about the misbehavior of our Nigerian escort to Merca.

For your information, Monday 2/5/94 the escort did not show up as per request, informed your Captain McKernan/ Captain McCalduff RAF /5/94cya2. Instead the escorts showed up on Wednesday 4/5/94.

Convoy departed Alba Base around 08.45hrs. The escort instructed the loaded fuel trucks to follow them when they crossed the RUNWAY. The escort did not use the by pass road (convoy route), instead they passed through the HOT SPOTS as KM 4, KM 5, Embassy to reach Hunters Base. From there the convoy proceeded as normal.

. ..

Coming back from Merca, near ABU airport, the escort commander suggested to our "convoy in charge" to proceed onwards without his escort because he had to pick up an other escort at the Embassy and was running out of time. Our "convoy in charge" refused and the escort stayed with them up to Hunters Base junction where they abandoned the trucks. At 21 .00hrs Alba Base got a distress call, from the convoy, that they were stranded outside Hunters Base with no escorts. I personally went with the transport co-ordinator without security to get our convoy in. It is unnecessary to explain to you that I am very upset about this and I demand disciplinary action against this escort.

I want to express my thanks to the Pakistani security for escorting our trucks throughout the by pass road.

Hoping to have you informed.

An escort is needed to take one, 7,500 USG capacity, tractor truck and trailer from Alba base at the Airport compound to Mobile Shabel company. The company is located behind old Mogadishu stadium, Behani area, in northeast Mogadishu by the old seaport.

This company, however, does not have bulk shipping capacity to deliver the fuel to the MOGAS fuel storage area. 50,000 USG were ordered in this requisition. It will take seven trips to accomplish the entire fuel pickup . Alba will be able to make two round trips per day, a total of seven trips will be required .

REF: f::,cff / /9'ff.U3 Plans/94

SUBJECT: SECURITY SITUATION IN BUALE

A. Letter from Security Officer, Bardera, dated 28 Jun 94 B. Indian Brigade Memo dated 04 Jul 94

1. The incident was investigated by representatives from the Indian Brigade together with the Area Security Coordinator Mr T. Cameron, who travelled with a platoon of troops to Buale on 03 Jul 94. The District Commissioner, apparently indicated that the incident on 28 Jun appears to have been an isolated occurrence and should not be given undue credence. It should not be regarded as an act of hostility towards UNOSOM personnel. Of interest, the arrival of the troops in the town caused no reaction from the local population.

2. It is evident that the UNHCR and NGO staff in Buale do feel uneasy- at the current situation and expressed their desire for UNOSOM troops to be permanently located in the town. (Unfortunately this is currently not possible). An offer was made to evacuate the staff although this was declined. It would appear the incident occurred as a result of local employment difficulties caused by uneven representation form various clans, a lack of local· police and an absence of Ugas, (who were in Doobley at the time of the incident) .

3. It is assessed that the temporary positioning of troops in Buale will not resolve the cause of the incident on 28 Jun 94. As the situation appears to have stabilized, I recommend no further action be at this time. However, Indian forces remain ready to react, should further assistance be required.

SECURITY SITUATION I N BUALE

1. Further to our letter No 66020/33/UNOSOM/GS (Ops) dated 28

Jun 94 and directions of Force Commander on 03 Jul 94 to the

Indian Brigade for carrying out a fact finding mission to

ascertain the current s ecu r i ty s ituati o n in Bu a l e due to the

recent incident of 28 Jun 94.

2. On orders of the Indian Brigade the Kismayo battalion sent a

team comprising of two officers with a platoon and accompanied b y

Mr Trevor Cameron, UNOSOM Area Security Co-ordinator to Buale on

03 Jul 94 in three UNOSOM helicopters on a fact finding mission

to ascertain the current security situation in Buale . The

details of the mission are given in the succ eeding parag raph s .

Incident o f 16 Jun 94. An i nc iden t t ook plac e ai the bridge

at Buale ori 16 Jun . It was accepted by the e xpatriates in Buale

that the incident was sparked off due to a over reaction of the

local guards of the Swiss Group .

4. Incident of 28 Jun 94. The incident took place at about

0550C on 28 Jun 94. A very hazy pictu re of the incident was

painted. On visiting the site it emerged that apparently a crude

device had been planted on the water . tank wh i ch is located

approximately 10 - 15 feet from the perimeter wall. The strength

l

l I

I

II of the explosive can be gaug~d from the fact that neither the .. fragile frame which supports the tank nor the metal water tank

were damaged by the explosion. Only the wooden portion of the

frame was chipped and that too to a very limited extent. It has

been accepted by the District Commissioner that this was an

isolated incident, perpetrated by somebody who had ostensibly

come from Kismaya specially for this. Hirnce he requested the

team not to take any cognisance of the incident.

5. Situation in Buale. The team spent two hours on the ground.

The landing of three helicopters in the centre of the town evoked

no unusual reaction from the locals. During the entire period of

stay not even one rifle shot was heard from the entire town.

Normal activities continued throughout the duration of the period

when the team was present.

6. Response of the Expatriates. At present UNHCR is

represented by Mr Rindert, who is a field offi cer . Sv, i ss group

is represented by Mr Albercht and one Kenyan national . The team

leaders of UNHCR and the Swiss group have ostensibly moved ta

Nairobi for consultations/treatment . The staff e xpressed their

unease at the situation and reiterated their desire ·for presence

of UNOSOM troops. The reasons for the inability of UNOSOM to

send troops to Buale were e xp lained to them.

7. Meet i ng wi th th e Distric t Council . Buale is one of the fe1>1

places with a functioning District Council. A meeting was held

with the District Council and a few other a~ailable elders . The

first request of the District Commissioner was to get the Ugas

back from Doobley and that he himself was unable to influence the

situation in his abs ence. He also e xpressed h i s regret at the

incident of 28 Jun 94 and assured the t e am that t h e culp r its

would be caught and dealt with as pe r the Islamic laws . He also

reiterated the point about the need of a p6lice fo r ce in Buale.

He felt that the area had been neglected by UNOSOM and thought

that the INGOs were of more value to the locals than UNOSOM .

However, in the end he also requested for the presence of UNOSOM

in Buale.

8 . &!#iiiffi I t is f e 1 t that -- : -

(a) T~e situation has worsenea primarily due to the fact

that the Ugas and others who are cap a ble o f inf l uencing the

locals are away in Doobley and a re not pre sent in Buale.

(b) The ~ f locals by the various agencies has

been done without keeping in mind the complex clan

structure.

( C) ve been made to the guards at the a ir

strip and these promises have not been fulfilled .

./ '

< d) The i

nd other e lders hav e sta r t e d

a ostensibly for reasons of

safety, "Jhereas they are actL1ally collecting "ta:<" from the

agencies and the people. The people manning the check point

fare now beyond the control of elders .

(e) Inspite of their good intentions the

of UNOSOM has not been able to establish a viable a nd

functional police force a t Buale despite repeated requests.

9. Recommendations. The following recommendations are made for

your consideration pl ease :-

1 The present situation does not meri t

presence of UNOSOM troops .

any permanent

HQ UNOSOM (Civil) be approached to get the Ugas and

other leaders of Buale back from Doobley .

(c) Option of sending UNOSOM troops from Botswana Task

Force temporarily to tide ove r the absence of the

influential elders can be evaluated . Alternati vely Botswana

Task Force p ersonnel can visit Buale for a duration of 3 to

4 hours once a week till -the situation i mprov,s: The same

is rec·ommended in viei,1 of the dist-a.nee involved from Bardera

viz Kismayo and the heavy commitment of troop s of Ki smayo

batta lion to ensure a secure and stabl e env1ronment in the

lower and middle Juba regions and above all in Kismayo town

itse lf, due to the large number of INGOs/HROs besides, tasks

of ensuring the security of

comp le :< es .

the airport and seaport

Cd) Dedicated efforts be made by the Police Department of

UNOSOM ta rai s e a poli ce force on priority in Buale .

. < e ) In I/ i el•! of the t1J i thd rat,i a 1 of UNHCR staff1 from Kismayo,

a regLllar radio 1 ink be mai ntained with Buale t h rough ... \

UNICEF, Kismayo. The Signa l Det achmen t o f the Kismayo

SUBJECT . . DEATHS OF ITALIAH JOURNALIST AND BOSNIAN CAMERAMAN OH 20 MARCH 1994

Reference: Memo no 94/COS/ SS0/16 dated 22 March 94.

CASE SUMMARY

1. The above mentioned memorandum was received by this office on the same date requesting for an investigation into the circumstances leading to the deaths of an Italian journalist and a Bosnian photographer on 20 March 1994. A Somali bodyguard travelling with them was also injured.

2. The investigation was carried out by Lt P Mishra in conjunction with Capt Salvati from u-2.

FINDINGS

3. The investigation carried out and certain reliable information available to the u-2 revealed that:

(a) There were six bandits (gunmen) who were waiting in front of AMAMA HOTEL (GRID NH 3875 2571) in a blue land rover, on VIA TREVES. This hotel is approximately 50-60 meters away from the Italian Embassy towards CORSO DELLA REPUBLICA. See attached sketch-

(b) The journalists left the hotel escorted 'by a Somali bodyguard armed with an AK 47 and their vehicle driven by another Somali.

2

(c) The bandits followed the journalists' car, for about 100 meters and then stopped them by swerving in front of them at the prominent crossing formed by VIA TREVES and CORSO DELLA REPUBLICA(photograph 2). The same scenario has been enacted using two UNOSOM vehicles and photographed (photographs 3, 4 and 5).

(d) The bodyguard immediately reacted by engaging the attackers in the other car by fire, who were also firing, killing one bandit and wounding another.

(e) The driver of the journalists vehicle, meanwhile, tried to disengage by reversing his car away from the obstructing vehicle. -

(f) The firefight lasted 'only for a few minutes.

(g) During this firelight the cameraman was hit by a bullet on the side of his chest and the female journalist received a bullet wound at the Qack of her head.

(h) The journalists car reversed for about 35-40 meters and stopped.

(i) The blue land Rover being driven by the bandits then fled the scene .

(h) Both the journalists succumbed to their injuries on the spot. The bodies were taken out of the car onto the pavement. Dried blood still streaks the pavement (photographs 6 and 7).

(i) .The Somali bodyguard was also irijureq during the exchange of fire. _...,,. - .

(j) The gunmen were one ABGAL and five AWADLE.

4. Further comments/opinions/recommendations on the case will be provided by U-2. · ·

SUBJECT: I NCIDENT I N '!.'HE VICINITY OF TilE FORMER ITM..L\N ZMB~.ss·! 20 MAR 94.

1. GENERAL. TWO ITALIAN JOURNALIST WERE KILLED IN THE ABOVE MENTIONED INCIDENT AND THEIR SOMALI BODY GUARD WAS INJURED .

2. SOURCES. THE PRESENT REPORT rs BASED ON INFORMATION GIVEN BY FOUR VERY RELIABLE SOURCES.

3. EVENTS. THE BANDITS, 6 GUNMEN, WAITED FOR THE JOURNALIST IN A BLUE LAND ROVER, PARKED OPPOSITE TO THE "A.MAMA HOTEL" (LOCATED IN GRID NH 3875 2571; VIA TREVES; IN THE VICINITY OF THE FO&'IBR ITALIAN EMBASSY ) . THE TWO JOURNALT<:;TS LEFT THE HOTEL ESCORTED BY ONE SOMALI BODY GUARD ARMED WITH .-':.K-47, AND THEIR CAR DRIVEN BY . ANOTHER SOMALI. THE BANDITS FOLLOWED THE JOURNALISTS CAR FOR ABOUT 100 METERS, THEN' THEY STOPPED THE JOURNALISTS VEHICLE BY CUTTING IN FRONT WITH THEIR VEHICLE IN THE VICINITY OF THE CROSS ROAD BETWEEN VIA TREVES AND CORSO DELLA REPUBBLICA. THE SOMALI BODY GUARD IMMEDIATELY REACTEp ENGAGING THE ATTACKERS KILLING ONE OF THEM AND WOUNDING ANOTHER./ TKE DIVER TRIED TO DISENGAGE BY REVERSING AWAY FROM THE OBSTRUCTING VEHICLE. THE FIRE FIGHT LASTED ONLY A FEW MINUTES HOWEVER A STRAY BULLET HIT THE CAMERA MAN IN THE SIDE OF HIS CHEST PASSING THROUGH AND HITTING THE FEMALE JOURNALIST IN THE BACK OF HER HEAD (SHE WAS CROUCHED IN THE SEAT AT THE TIME). THE BODY GUARD WAS ALSO INJURED IN trttE INCIDENT.

4. ATTACKERS. THE GUNMEN WERE ONE ABGAL AND 5 A.WADLE.

5. AIM. REPORTS INDICATED THAT THE BANDITS WERE NOT INTERESTED IN THE THEFT OF THE VEHICLE BUT IN THE KIDNAPPING OF TWO WESTERN JOURNALISTS (TOBE HELD FOR RANSOM). THIS WAS OBVIOUS AS WHEN THE JOURNALISTS WERE BADLY WOUNDED THE BANDITS FLED WITHOUT TAKING THE VEHICLE.

6. ASSES!JMENT. THE CURREN'l' ECONOMIC SITUATION IN MOGADISHU AND SOMALIA HAS RESULTED IN A.~ INCREASE OF CRIME. IT IS ASSESSED TH.i\T BANDITS WILL PREFER SOFT TARGETS {THAT IS TARGETS WITH LITTLE OR NO PROTECTION). THE CURRENT TREND INDICATES THE THEFT OF VEHICLES AND KIDNAPPING AND WERE POSSIBLE BOTH.

DRAFT

CONCLUSIONS FROM THE FC BRIEFING TO THE SRSG

1. A decision need be made on the building of a 200 man camp at the airport if the SRSG is to move out of the Embassy Compound as emergency withdrawal begins.

2. A team from New York is expected to come at the end of July to discuss with Kenyan authorities on staging areas during emergency withdrawal.

3. The cos is to ensure (between today and Monday) that we enter into dialogue with representatives of the SNA and USC on how to realise a forum for the discussion of Mogadishu security problems.

4. The SRSG expressed satisfaction with the Forces Command, praised their tolerance of Somali provocative acts and urged continued restraint. Nonetheless, the forces must be prepared to defend ourselves if the situation were to go bad.

FROM: Naulu V Mataitini (1/4,j./-<..Cj~ Chief Security Coordinator

DATE: 13 July 1994

SUBJECT: Mogadishu North Issues

1. I refer to CTO' s memorandum of 9 July to the CTS on the issue of payment for hired vehicles and his recommendations therein and my memorandum of 15 June the issue of employment of local guards. Both memorandums are attached for ease of reference. I also attach a memo from the OIC North Mogadishu on the issue.

2. Reasons why the vehicles used in the North have never been properly contracted are due to a combination of the absence of any properly constituted procedures in UNOSOM 1, the lack of follow up since and the now all too familiar threats issued by the owners whenever an attempt is made to address the problems. While I therefore endorse the recommendations of the CTO, I believe we should seek the advise of our Zone personnel in the North as to how recommendation b. can be effected without repercussions against UNOSOM. Any decision on our part should be based on their recommendation.

3. Another issue which has been pending for sometime but which is also tied to the issue of vehicle hire is that of employment of local guards. As you know, Ms S. Khan, DDPA has supported my recommendation and I would be grateful if we could proceed with and implement the recommendation to hire the guards as local staff on SSA.

4 . Forward for your approval and other necessary actions please.

CC: CSC,DPA,DOA,CTO

FROM: HASSAN RAZA SYED A/ZD NORTH MOGADIS

.DATE: JULY 12, 1994

SUB: MEETING WITH HIRED VEHICLE OWNERS

As a re.ciult of growing discontentment and hostility by the Somali escort vehicle guards on nonpayment of rents to the vehicles and the salaries, The A/ZD and ASC held a meeting with the vehicle owners to clarify the circumstances which have hindered payment of the rent~ and salaries. ·

The root cause of the problem is not the immediate delay in the payment of rents to the owners because the payment became an issue only very recently, when it was found out by the transportation section that the vehicles, since, the time they were hired have operated without a written contract. The issue is further compounded in nature because related with the verbal hiring contracts for vehicles is linked the issue of employment.

In brief this office would like to bring in your kind notice the gist of the negotiations which were aimed at pacifying the workers and reducing threats, hostility and non-cooperative attitude of the vehicle workers.

1) We told the vehicle owners th.at payment of rents to the owners has been delayed due to absence of written contracts , and we are making e·fforts to resolve this issue very soon. Further, we informed that UNOSOM has not refused the payment of rents but has taken steps to remove the anomalies which exist between the parties on not having contracts according to the regulations of the United Nations.

2) The owners were also informed about the complexities of three dimensional relationship between UNOSOM and vehicle owners and their relationship with the security guards, and disparities existing in the service terms both with the UNOSOM and the vehicle owners.

3) The issue of standards followed in hiring the vehicles specifically the road worthiness of the

---------~-------

PHONE NO. 922864 •

1 )RTH MOG* JUL. 12 . 1994 7 : 44PM P 2 ..

rom mechanical point of view and certification of ~ch suitability by the transportation as also pointed for the attention of the owners.

After establishing the above noted points, we told the owners that we intend to undertake the following remedial measures:

A) To make arrangements for the delivery qf payments sooner than later and we informed them the time frame will not be more than three days.

B) We suggested a comprehensive negotiations between the vehicle owners, workers and UNOSOM to resolve the complete issue once and for all and to deal with the following problems: ·

1) to resolve the issue as to who would be the paymaster for the security escort guards presently working with UNOSOM hired escort vehicles.

2) to resolve the issue of double salaries of the security guards. 3) to resolve the issue of working hours and their overtime. 4) to resolve the issue of road worthiness of the vehicles.

On the part of vehicle owners we noticed that they were not unanimous on our proposition. Some owners had no difficulty in me:eting our. requirements and following the course which we had suggested to them to resolve the issue on equitable basis. But some owners wanted us to resolve the problem immediately, and al1;0 to make decision on the question of employment of those guards, who are working with us for the last two years. The vehicle owners falling in this category demand employment as their relationship with UNOSOM is hoth as employees and vehicle contractors.

This matter as it has been stated above is complex and involves clash of interests between vehicle contractors. But the overall responsibility has been shifted on UNOSOM and onus to agree on each of their terms has been shifted by them on us. They h.ave the ability to jeopard.ire the security of the Zone Office and its staff members, which they did sometime.q be.ck and will not hesitate to create a similar situation again if we do not solve this issue soon.

It is our apprehension that with the growing restlessness among the security escon guards and residential guards, we may face a serious security situation keeping in view the unity of the employees on this issue. The employees as it is well known tn all of us can go to any extent on th.e question of emoluments, and these workers rarely show respect for the employer.

We therefore, advise for a prompt action on payment of rents and salaries. At this stage to plead absence of contract<; may not be a sound argument because we have used vehicles since the last two years without such contract~. On settling payment we can hold negotiations to solve this issue and can enter into contracts. l t is also requested that COS may hold an inter-divisional meeting to adopt an effective policy on the employment and hiring issues in this zone. Best Regards.

SECURl lY SECTION

Subject: PAYMENT - HIRED VEHICLES - NORTH MOGADISHU

Reference: TPT 620/94Ne;iicles, same subject, dated 20 Jun 94 (attached)

The Reference introduced the subject of non-contracted vehicles in North Mogadishu. The matter now stands as follows:

a . Work Sheets have been presented to CTO for nine vehicles for the period 16-30 Jun 94;

b. CTO cannot certify the payments due to the lack of current/valid contracts;

c. Prior to being contracted the vehicles will be required to complete a basic roadworthiness check, and that process cannot be speeded up due to the observed unroadworthiness of the vehicles.

The matter is complicated by the security situation in North Mogadishu, also introduced in the Reference. If the vehicle owners are not paid it is likely that violence will result.

CTO recommends:

a. To protect the UNOSOM personnel and property in North Mogadishu full payment be made to the vehicle owners in settl,ement of all monies due at this time; and

b. The vehicle owners be made aware that no further payments will be made until the vehicles are correctly contracted to UNOSOM.

MEMORANDUM

HIRED VEHICLES - NORTH l\ifOGADISHU

TPT 620194N ehicles

In a recent memo CTO advised DOA of the possibility that some of the red vehicles under the control of the North Mogadishu Zone Office may not be properly contracted to UNOSOM. This state of nil contracts has resuJted from insistence that Nth Mog should have control ov~r their own fleet of hired vehicles. CTO has investigated the matter.

No current contracts can be located for the nine vehicles currently used by the Nth Mog Zone Office. They are not with Transport Section, Finance Section or Procurement Section. Nth Meg can only locate one copy of one contract which expired Aug 93 .

· CTO visited Nth Mog Zone Office in a visit arranged with the Acting Zone Director (the Zone Director, Mr Conteh, is on leave until the end of the month) early in the morning of 19 Jun 94 to conduct 1 quick inspection of the vehicles. The quick visuaJ inspection indicated that international staff should not be carried in five of the nine vehicles, effective immediately, because of obvious roadworthiness fauJts. CTO convinced the Acting Zone Director not to take precipitate action before the return of Mr Conteh, owing to the sensitive political and security situation of the Zone Office in Nth Mog.

DOA should be aware that the owners and drivers of the Nth Meg vehicles are a particularly violent group of individuals, who will resist all efforts to have the vehicles repaired at their cost.

CTO recommends no action be taken until the return of Mr Conteh from leave.

Of interest is the report that the Acting Zone Director was shot at the same day as CTO's visit -whether that shooting was related to the hired vehicles is a matter for the assessment of other organisations.

HISHAM OMAYAD, DSR , IIJ---11_ 27 JULY 1994 v // // ''-_,, ACCOMMODATION FOR MILITARY PERSONNEL WITHIN EMBASSY COMPOUND

As you are aware, the civilian component has been under pressure in recent weeks for additional office space and accommodation for staff at the Embassy Compound.

In order to meet our commitment in this regard, it has become necessary for us to request that military personnel currently occupying premises in the civilian section of the Embassy Compound vacate these premises by 1 5 August 1994 to make way for additional civilian personnel. I might mention that civilian facilities presently occupied by the Australian contingent (Anzac House) and the Nigerian MP's were commandeered, or unilaterally acquired (squatting) without consultation or approval of the civilian component. I should be much obliged if you would ensure that these Australian and Nigerian military personnel vacate the civ ilian premises as a matter of urgency. Alternative accommodation has been provided for them at the University Compound.

I am enclosing herewith relevant communication from Mr. W. Clive, Chief Technical Services, addressed to Brig. Gen. G.A. Khan, COS Military, on 21 July 1994 on the subject.

I should be most grateful for your urgent response to the above.

Subject: Accommodation for Military Personnel within Embassy Compound

At the moment we are looking at both office space and accommodation for staff within the Embassy Compound. From our survey we find that we have difficulty in housing all required personnel within the available space. However,· during our checking of the compound areas we found two army groups who are accommodated in areas without authority.

1. Australians - ANZAC House

It would appear that the Australians unilaterally moved into this accommodation without authority. As this accommodation is urgently required by Building Management Servias, could you look to relocate the Australians as soon as possible. CTS will assist you as far as possible in finding alternative accommodation in the University Compound.

2. Nigerian MP - Squatting

We would also like to draw your attention to a group of Nigerian MPs who are squatting in the ATCO prefab buildings located near the MAANT A publishing unit. As this accommodation is also required for offices could you look to relocate these Nigerian MPs to the University Compound as a matter of urgency.

3. General

We are also aware of your need for staff accommodation within the Embassy Compound. We are looking into this matter and will come back to you when we have anything to report.

Mr. S. Bjomsson, DOA Mr. M . Lessanu, CBMS Please take appropriate action to find suitable

accommodation in the University Compound for the Australians and Nigerians.

FROM:

DATE: 19 JULY 1994

SUBJECT: RELOCATION OF OFFICES.

1. In order to streamline allocation of offices within the Embassy Compound a relocation of some offices, both Civilian and Military, is urgently required.

2. Mr. H. OMAYAD, DSRSG discussed this issue with GEN ABOO SAMAH, _ FC and it was agreed that the India Liaison Office will be relocated from its present premisses in Building F to the Force Commander Building by the end of July 1994.

3. It is proposed that the Medical Clinic and U-4 (Medical) offices be relocated from its present premises at Building D to the newly completed Building # 11 (rooms 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 20 and A - as per attached floor plan). This issue was tentatively discussed with LtCol Dr Mohanadas, Force Medical Officer. Building # 11 is practically ready for relocation of the Clinic and U-4 (Medical) with the exception of whitewashing inside windows of offices which will be done by 22 July 1994. This relocation can be. started at any time now with a view to completing it on 24 July 1994. Please, contact BMS for the keys to the offices (point of contact - Mr. P. Malla, ext. 22-271). Existing telephone extensions should be transferred to the new location (point of contact - Mr. Victor Dumet, ext. 22-000).

4. It is also proposed to relocate offices of SSO/SO (Projects), SSO/SO (Maintenance) and U-7 (Engineers) from their present locations at Building D (rooms D24, D25 and D2J respectively) to rooms D12, D13 and D14 respectively in the same building as room D25 has an entrance door from outside and is allocated to accommodate Movcon Booking office and roms D24 and D26 are adjacent to it to accommodate Travel and Shipping Office which needs easy and separate access. These should be done concurrently with the relocation of the Medical Clinic and U-4 (Medical) Offices.

Accommodation for Military Personnel within Embassy Compound

Your memorandum dated 21 July 1994 refers.

1 . Australians and Nigerian have occupied the accommodation since 1993 with the plan to adjust them on construction of 800 Men Camp. The question of authorization is invalid as the Camp Comdt authorizes the adjustment on the recommendation of UNOSOM Accommodati on Committee.

2. The issue of Australians - ANZAC House and Nigerian MP accommodation will continue to persist owing to paucity of living accommodation available with the military . It will be inappropriate to deal with Australian and Nigerian MP accommodation in isolation under such circumstances when the problem of the accommodation for military has been referred to the DOA (Copy of our memo attached).

3. Since the delegation from UNNY is arriving soon to discuss reduction in force level , awaiting its outcome will be better option. Moreover, at this point of time displacing already accommodated military personnel will be counter productive.

4. It is advised that unless the problems of accommodation of military is understood precisely, which was possible earlier, and alternative accommodation provided, up- setting the present arrangements may kindly be avoided.

5. Best regard.

At the moment we are looking at both office space and accommodation for staff within the Embassy Compound. From our survey we find that we have difficulty in housing all required personnel within the available space. However, during our checking of the compound areas we found two army groups who are accommodated in areas without authority.

1. Australians - ANZAC House

It would appear that the Australians unilaterally moved into this accommodation without authority. As this accommodation is urgently required by Building ~anagement Services, could you look to relocate the Australians as soon as possible. CTS will assist you as far as possible in finding alternative accommodation in the University Compound.

2. Nigerian MP - Squatting

We would also like to draw your attention to a group of Nigerian MPs who are squatting in the A TCO prefab buildings located near the MAANTA publishing unit. As this accommodation is also required for offices could you look to relocate these Nigerian MPs to the University Compound as a matter of urgency.

3. General

We are also aware of your need for staff accommodation within the Embassy Compound. We are looking into this matter and will come back to you when we have anything to report.

The UN policy on accommodation for military personnel as given in "Guidelines for Governments Contributi ng Military Personnel to the United Nation Operations in Somalia, UNOSOM" dated 23 September 1992, specifics that prefab accommodation will be provided for by the United Nations after 90 days of arrival of troops (Annexure A). Moreover, the military staff of Force HQ is posted as an individual and not as part of contingents hence the responsibility of logistics backup, including provision of prefab accommodation, devolves exclusively on the UNOSOM Administration .

A UNOSOM Accommodation Committee under the chairmanship of the DOA with the Comdt as its member had resolved successfully issues related to living accommodation, office allocation, vendor shops , PS plaza and other related matter . Accordingly the committee had allotted 108 rooms for the military officers in 800 Men Camp on its completion The Inter Office memorandum on the subject with detailed working approved by the Committee is enclosed at Annexure B. However~ the Camp Comdt insisted on provision of more accommodation ·as explained in next paragraph .

Military Accommodation

I acknowledge receipt of your memorandum dated 16 May 1994 seeking guidance on the provision of military accommodation.

As in all peace-keeping operations undertaken hy the United Nations, the governments contributing military personnel to the mission are advised of a range of basic information to enable them to make the necessary arrangements prior to departure for the mission area. The advice is contained in the "Guidelines for Governments Contributing Military Personnel tn

the United Nations Operations in Somalia, UNOSOM" dated 23 September 1992 .

. The question of accommodation for the military personnel is covered in P~rt-lY of the guidelines and in Appendix I to Annex B covering preparation of the logistics unil~ as fc .. NS:

I) 8il..$eat&\ffl~b~dfjfuvt&~o1r..l>0'ihltf:Jrute1ffil'a~. initially, troops will be in tent<; for up to 90 days pending arrival of prefabs . These tenl'i should he provided hy contributing governments.

2) Tentage: Tentage is required for personnel (sleeping accommodation), messing, administration, workshops, stores and medical inspection to he used initially for at least 90 days until the planned accommodation prefabs are in position for use.

It is clear from the above that the long term objective is to provide military personnel , at least at the Headquarters, with prefabrication· accommodation, or its equivalent. This is the policy being pursued hy UNOSOM II and, as you have heen informed previously, such accommodation will be made available to Camp Command as in the past as it becomes available.
