The body of a Somali member of parliament was today found in a hotel in the capital Mogadishu. Mohamed Hussein Rai’s body was found lying around the presidential palace in the Muna hotel that is in the middle of the capital. Mohamed Hussein Rai has served as an MP for some time now and was known to be a diligent legislator working very hard to help his constituents. The death comes as a shock to many Somali legislators who see him as a fine politician.
Somalia’s deputy speaker Professor Mohamed Omar Dalha confirmed the death of the MP on both radio and TV broadcast. “The time of our colleague has ended and there is no other more information about his death. I am sending my deep condolence to the family and relatives of the deceased legislator Mr. Mohamed Hussein Rai. May Allah rest his life into paradise,” said Prof. M. Dalha. The death of the MP is the first to be reported since the beginning of 2010.
