location: Jowhar
notes: A young man aged 22 was killed by AS militias while on his way from Mahaday to Jowhar on 24/12. The man was reportedly a former AS militiaman who had defected and had joined the TFG. He had travelled to Mahaday to visit relatives but was arrested by AS and later managed to escape detention. He was caught again in a public transport, wearing woman's dress, probably trying to reach Mogadishu, and was shot on the spot by AS militiamen.
