Abdiaziz Abdinur Ibrahim controversy information

The Abdiaziz Abdinur Ibrahim controversy began in February 2013 when journalist Abdiaziz Abdinur Ibrahim interviewed Lul Ali Osman, who claimed that she was raped by government security forces while living in an internally displaced peoples camp in Mogadishu, Somalia. The two were arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in prison for having allegedly fabricated the story. The trial was described by some human rights groups as politically motivated.^[1] Osman was later in the month acquitted following an appeal, and Ibrahim's sentence was reduced to six months.^[2] It was concurrently announced that an Independent Task Force on Human Rights had been established, which would review his case to see if due process has been followed.^[3] Ibrahim was released from detention the following month, on 17 March 2013.^[4]
